The front of this barn faces onto a road I travel regularly. It’s a pretty spread with a home I admire. I recently approached it from another direction and discovered these three vintage cars, presumably waiting for attention. All are Fords. My husband estimates they are probably a 1950, 1954, and 1955. Then he launched into a nostalgic story about sleeping in the back of one of these many, many years ago.
In our early days together hubby regularly waved at passing old cars saying, “I had one of those!” He bought many for $25, tinkered with them, and then drove them until they ran out of drive.
Must be a man thing – the very first thing I noted in your pic was those old cars. I won’t say wrecks, someone could put life back into them yet.
Look at those cars! I think they should be in a museum, but probably they still exist by the thousands in the US.
Old barns are wonderful…..I felt sad yesterday when I saw the big barn (going towards Sunny Farms on the freeway driving West) up on the right…the center is beginning to collapse!
old cars seems interesting
What a wonderful barn from the back end …I’m sure many happy hours tinkering with cars would be spent here.
I commented on this post, too, Kay.
My 2nd car was a 1950 Plymouth coupe, green with wood grain interior. Then we had a 1954 Ford convertible. A disaster. Rusted out! I wonder if these cars are part of a restoration plan.
cool!
and wow, a car for 25 dollars? my shoes are even more expensive… 🙂
