"Charlie Ransom's car 1948." A big Chrysler that looks like it just came from the orthodontist. Our latest scan from a batch of Kodachrome slides taken in Bay County, Michigan, around Pinconning. View full size.
is terribly intriguing. I'm about 20 minutes from Pinconning and I keep looking for something I recognize in the set. It'll hit me one day. Would be nice to know who the original owner of the set was, as well.
Parents had a 1948 Chrysler Windsor in green. It was the car I learned to drive in before I got to borrow the family car, a 1957 Plymouth two-door station wagon.
My best friend's parents had one just like this. I enjoyed going into town with them because it was so quiet and didn't bounce and rattle like our old Plymouth. I can still feel the velour covered seats.
California to Pinconning, in 1948. Might as well travel in style.
