And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
My BIL has had an orange 53' sitting in pieces in his garage for the past 40 years. It was the only new vehicle his father had ever bought and he (the BIL) inherited it in 1978 and amateurishly painted it orange, then tore it apart. Then he lost interest. I'm gonna send him this pick as a cattle prod.
My first car was a hand-me-down '50 Champion Sedan - black, 4-door, six, three speed. I imagine all the Champs were sixes with three speed. I've seen two doors but never saw one that wasn't black.

It is real. Street rodder had an article on it a few years back. Well built high dollar ride.
ReplyDeleteI raced those corn pickers with my hudson in my youth. If they would have looked like that I would have been driving the cornpicker.
ReplyDeleteThat's a Studebaker not an International Harvester.

ReplyDeleteI take it you've never heard of the Studebaker front end referred to as a cornpicker?
ReplyDeleteI'm impressed but I prefer factory original.
