55 Fargo Posted December 14, 2012 Report Posted December 14, 2012 Hey all, pulled the ole girl out today to strecth here legs and get things circulated a bit. Battery needed charging a bit, and away she fired up, runs great as usual, warms up nice and toasty too. Quote
Ed Griffin Posted December 14, 2012 Report Posted December 14, 2012 Your car looks great out there in all that snow. All it needs is a bright red bow attached to the grille. Thanks for sharing. Quote
1940plymouth Posted December 14, 2012 Report Posted December 14, 2012 Thanks for the photos, I also agree that she needs a nice bright red bow Quote
55 Fargo Posted December 15, 2012 Author Report Posted December 15, 2012 hey Guys, top of the Season to you. I will try and decorate the ole girl tomorrow, and take a pic. I was thinking as I took these pics, should dress her up for Xmas.... Quote
Don Jordan Posted December 16, 2012 Report Posted December 16, 2012 What is all that white stuff? I've read about it but don't think I've ever been that close to it. Good looking car. Quote
Andydodge Posted December 16, 2012 Report Posted December 16, 2012 Rock, did you end up using that grille piece I sent?..........the car looks nice, do they use salt around where you are?..........this salt caper is something we never have to worry about over here..........its 7.30am here & already its 90 F. inside the house..........lol....welcome to summer in Oz.......andyd Quote
oldodge41 Posted December 16, 2012 Report Posted December 16, 2012 Nice pics as always. Of all the old Mopars we have had, Dad's '48 New Yorker coupe was probably the smoothest ride. it had the straight eight and was black in color. I like the white. Quote
thrashingcows Posted December 17, 2012 Report Posted December 17, 2012 Sure do like you car....Looks great in those snow pics. Thanks for sharing. Quote
40phil41 Posted December 17, 2012 Report Posted December 17, 2012 Hey Rockwood, how about if I bring out my bright red Dodge from Ontario for a photo op? Just kidding, we will be having it here soon enough. Phil Quote
falconvan Posted December 19, 2012 Report Posted December 19, 2012 That's a great looking car; i'll bet you get a lot of rubber neckers when you've got her out on the road. Quote
38plymouth Posted December 20, 2012 Report Posted December 20, 2012 You would never dare to do that in NY. I swear they start spreading the salt in October around here. We haven't had any snow or ice yet and there is salt all over the place. Quote
Tom Skinner Posted December 21, 2012 Report Posted December 21, 2012 /[/img] It doesn't snow much here in Huntersville NC Quote
Frank Elder Posted December 21, 2012 Report Posted December 21, 2012 What a beautiful green, got some side shots for us Tom? Quote
Tom Skinner Posted December 21, 2012 Report Posted December 21, 2012 I don't have many (my computer crashed recently). Quote
Frank Elder Posted December 21, 2012 Report Posted December 21, 2012 That will hold me for awhile....... Quote
Tom Skinner Posted December 21, 2012 Report Posted December 21, 2012 Frankie47, Thank you, you are kind. I didn't mean to hijack this thread. I liked driving my first 1948 Chrysler Royal in the snow up in NJ back in the 1970's, and I thought that 1947 white Windsor looked terrific. I had a pic of my 48 with the red bow and when it was mentioned, I figured out the new way to load pictures on the forum (it only took me an hour) I attached my green machine to the mix. Merry Christmas, and keep those Christmas Bow Pictures coming! Occasionally I see a Big Mercedes going down the road with the Big Red Bow on them, and thought what the heck I'll put one on my Royal.

Niel Hoback Posted December 22, 2012 Report Posted December 22, 2012 I think that car is absolutely the best looking representation of 40's automobiles. It is everything a person could want in a classic car. Its not so big and gaudy as a giant limosine but rather what a working family of the era would aspire to own. I love it and its not mine. Who's the guy on the ladder? Quote
Tom Skinner Posted December 22, 2012 Report Posted December 22, 2012 Niel, That's my neighbor, painting his own house. He is in his late sixties and can afford a painter but would rather do it himself. I was driving through the neighborhood and stopped to take that picture. I asked him if he would mind me parking in front of his place to do so, and he said help yourself. Great guy to talk to. Tom Quote
55 Fargo Posted December 22, 2012 Author Report Posted December 22, 2012 This back drop could pass for the South, along the Historic Red River of the North, Eveline Street in Selkirk Manitoba. Quote
1950 Special Deluxe Posted December 22, 2012 Report Posted December 22, 2012 The weather is much nicer in Winnipeg than Saskatoon.:) Quote
55 Fargo Posted December 22, 2012 Author Report Posted December 22, 2012 The weather is much nicer in Winnipeg than Saskatoon.:) Ya okay Neil:rolleyes:, we are further south;), but it is the same old prairie Canada cold:confused:, summer is super hot at times, and it is humid here from the Lakes, think your weather is much drier in summer than ours...

40phil41 Posted December 22, 2012 Report Posted December 22, 2012 Hey Phil, that snow storm rip through your area yet. Ottawa and Montreal is supposed to get hit with some deep snow........... It missed us completely. It is +1C and sunny this morning. Looks like Ottawa got it though. My snow blower is ready to run but nothing so far this winter. Phil Quote
