I went to a luncheon meeting in a nearby small town. Because the event was well-attended, combined with the fact that I arrived only fifteen minutes early, I had to park, oh, perhaps forty yards from the entry to the meeting room.
Following the doings, I walked to the car and started to open the door when I espied across the street this view which I had not seen in my hurry to get to the meeting. (Now you all know how teachers love a good meeting. I may work the word "meeting" into this account yet again.)
One never knows what he'll see behind the gate. I believe the two-tone beauty is a 1958 Rambler American by AMC. Next to it is something much more recent by Dodge, probably an '06 Stratus. Behind it is a pickup, Chevy, probably '49.
Nice '57 Chev here, along with lots of other old iron. I'd really like to know what the oldtimers back next to the fence are, but I drew the line at actual trespass.
Next month's meeting is at our local library, so there will be little opportunity for any such surprises as I found on this day.

They're both, of course. Which is the source of their charm.
I'm sure whoever owns them would be proud to show them off to you. Are they just sitting outside to rust?
The fascination with car shows is something I've never understood. If I have one that runs and doesn't guzzle fuel, I'm good.
Jim, well-stated; so very true.
Lin, just sitting there, exposed to the elements.
Vee, to some, a car is transportation, to some it is a work of art and mechanical wizardry.
An interesting coupe in the back. A Plymouth?
Chuck, I didn't venture inside the gate. I think everything visible in the back row is in the pickup genre, Chevrolet; except for the unidentifiable ragtop behind the red car.
Love the truck. I'm a truck fan.
Yes, I see that now. I believe it is indeed a Chevrolet pickem up truck.
