There is a story with each one we will never know. Just tremendous.
Thanks much.

Re: Looking forward to being on the road.
I'm interested in the source of #2 & #3.
The photos appear to show different trailers (or maybe the same one modified at a different date?) but the same RHD car.
Although we're RHD here I suspect they're not from my country, but imagine there's something of a story there...
EDIT: After a little searching it appears the photographs depict scenes from the UK (via the National Motor Museum), which explains the RHD. The car is described as a 1921 Model T, the photograph with trees apparently taken in 1924. No further data on the other photograph, but the car looks a little newer?
I reckon the story is that the first caravan was found to be so unstable it was 'lowered', or a second 'van procured/produced which was less inclined to fall over... either way I'd hate to try stopping the assembly!

"Ernie, I just can't get it to start..."
"Well, Clem, I think she's flooded."
first in the last bunch - The first pre-MTFCA national tour... (I think some of us were there...)

Re: Looking forward to being on the road.
Photo # 12 is a stunning view, and a great composition. It must have been breathtaking to see it in real life, in living color.

Re: Looking forward to being on the road.
Absolutely awesome. Love the city pics, with the myriad of telephone poles, cars everywhere, and the MUD on that one particular picture!!
Loved the one with the girl sitting on the running board holding her head...like Chris said, "migraine"?...or, "this is too slow for me...gotta get to my boyfriend"!
