My parents lived through those days. Although they didn't have as many conveniences as we do today, but they had a lot more than the preceding generation. They used to think of it as "Progress". Now "progressives" think it is progress to do away with the progress!
Things surely go in circles.

The first photo shows how the rear curtain can be rolled up so as not to catch water. Rolling the other way is more often done but will trap water in the rolls.
Wonderful photos as usual.

When did I do that?

My grandparents lived through those times, I have a couple pictures of their cars from back then. It would make them sick to see what is going on in this country!
Once you realize that today’s “progressives” are nothing more than communists it’s easy to reconcile that destruction is their agenda and the mainstream media are nothing but a bunch of un-American liars!
Here’s where real America has gone to for honesty:

I really liked that aftermarket 1915 extended truck cab toward the end. I’d make one if I was a woodworker. Kevin and Norman; I really like the way you think.
I don’t know why I turned out this way. My parents were decent people 🤪
