Back when I started out, statementizing witnesses to car crashes, I'd ask, about the responding ambulance: was it a car-type, or truck-type vehicle?

Note the Mercury headlight bucket taped into place on the close fender, the missing rocker .... the torsion bar is probably broken loose from the frame ! | ||

Regular Posts: 78 Location: Mistake on the Lake | christine-lover - 2014-08-27 7:40 PM Such a beautiful car. Is it just me or does this car look motorless, or the Tbars are cranked up way too high? Am I on drugs or do these cars look better with a reverse rake like that? Like a shark coming out of the water. | ||

Location: Parts Unknown | Interesting read: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wigwam_Stores_Inc. There was a Wigwam store at the Eastgate Plaza shopping center near where I lived as a young kid. Coincidentally, my mother was driving a copper and cream 57 Chevy wagon just like the one shown in that photo. We often went to Safeway, Fisher Drugs, or the Wigwam store there. A really ancient style Dairy Queen occupied a space in the parking lot, away from the main building/s. Jerry's Barber Shop was there, as well as a sit-down restaurant called "'Lil Jon's". Next door to that was a Ford dealership whose name escapes me at the moment, as my car-buddy friend and I gravitated toward the dealerships in downtown Bellevue. That Ford dealership was Metke Ford, on the corner of 8th and 108th. I don't remember much about Wigwam other than it sold kitschy "discount" stuff and looked much like our local Rite-Aid does today. Eastgate Plaza was a classic 50's era shopping center, like some of the better ones shown in this thread. I still have the Schwinn Stingray I rode around there as a kid. Wonder if I rode it back, it might look the same, with a parking lot full of pastel colored cars ? | ||
