Jack, it appears that you and I have very different meanings of the phrase "a few years ago"...
i was expecting something from THIS century, not the first half of the last one...

I guess I don't see the big deal. It's a site that sells vintage photos. There are lots of them out there.

Clearly they did not understand the part of modern trailers that actually bent up when unloaded. That truck is sagging due to overload or under designed.

I made no claim that this site was a "big deal" just a site with some old photos of cars among all the other photos. It's possible that others are not as aware as you when it comes to vintage photos and they might find this site interesting. It's possible that some viewers browsed this site without leaving a comment and enjoyed the experience even though it was not a "big deal".

Looks like some nice old photos.
If you want more car photos, if you go over to the HAMB site, they have a page (lots of pages really) of vintage photos. This link goes to page 1, but I suspect you might want to start at the end and work backwards, as it's a six year old thread and a number of photos probably have broken links.

Thanks, great site.
Did you see the picture of "Christine"?

Woah - that's a cool thread!
Yeah, I came across that thread somehow a few years ago--probably killing time. Guess I haven't quite been able to kill the car guy in me. Anyhow, a few thousand pages of some times gone by and some cool machines.
OneEyeJack, I saw the movie Christine years and years ago; or did you mean there was a photo of it in that thread? I might have seen it in the thread, but would have forgotten by now.

I bet it is flat and doesn't need to bend upwards to hold any weight the truck can carry. No light weight materials that need to be doctored there. The picture gives an illusion by the curve of the bed.

There was a picture of a "Christine" car if you scrolled down a bit. Take another look.

The last century ended 16 years ago. Do the math.

I love Shorpy.
I visit that site daily. I greatly enjoy looking at such clear images of the past.

Great site, thanks.
55/90 on the first page is a stunning design for its day, must be something coachbuilt. Anyone have any ideas on builder?
