Saw this at a car lot this morning. Immediately thought of Propane1.
It had dealer plates on it, but it wasn't for sale.

I remember reading street rodder in high school in the 90s.
And the static straps hanging off the rear bumper.In the fifties it was Schwinn bicycles, Red ball Jets, Hopalong Cassidy, and rolled up pants cuffs. Wasn't old enough to pay attention to cars yet. The only thing I have some recollection of is flasher hubcaps and curb feelers.
Yeah and is son was in it too but I can't recall his name! Looked a lot like him and played his brother if I remember correctly.That movie made Robert Mitchum's career!!
My 30 DeSoto had a broken tail light lens with a blue dot in the center. First time I'd seen one. Illegal in a lot of states.Anybody remember the blue reflectors in the middle of the tail lights
By that time I was 13 and building model cars but the flasher hubcaps and curb feelers were a thing of the past by then. My Dad bought a new 63 Dodge Dart and I thought it was so ugly. It was a good car, just ugly. Still not fond of the looks. 63 1/2 Ford Galaxy was the car I would have died for. Neighbor had one and I couldn't keep my eyes off it. His was red with a white top.I believe but it was 1963 when I saw it.
