Some local car guys are getting together and social distancing for afternoon coffee at a local park.   Yesterday, (after some prodding) Larry brought out his Ford pickup.  Full alcohol power that was in his brothers front engine nostalgia dragster.

I could be sociable around that...but I'd have a rough time distancing myself from it!   :003: Nice ride!

When I was fourteen years old, I was amazed at how unintelligent my father was. By the time I turned twenty-one, I was astounded at how much he had learned in the last seven years!

Quote from: mustang6984 on 2020-05-11 13:26I have NEVER rolled out from under a car to see a sight like that! NEVER!
I have.  :001: 
Don't think I've seen any sights quite like this in person though.

Embarrassed to drive his Chevrolet during the day, Uncle Melvin had covered it with a mild disguise.  Later had to add the turret gun to repel the turd throwing hooligans.

Courtesy of Guenther...I went to see a '57 Country Squire today. <sigh> I fell in lust. Sad that I do not have any disposable greenbacks.
The car was at one time used as a "push car" by the former owner who had a rail. There used to be a push bar set up on the front of the car, and there were signs of tool boxes and jacks and such having been in residence in the back of the car. The museum manager inferred that he has pics of all this, showing the car in it's race day glories.
The back tires are meaty...more so than the front, and he says the car drives quite nicely given it's age. The master cylinder has been converted over to a dual master, and looks like it could have been original equipment the way it was designed.

The guy didn't know if this was a true T-bird motor or just had the valve covers.

And this little guy sits outside all day and night, no matter the weather...
And the front of the building from across the street.
This is a relatively new museum, the old one and about 3/4 of the contents having been destroyed in the tornado that went through here about 7-8 years ago...the first one in 90 years. I have some pics of the old building and the cars within as well as some of the neat displays. (those pics are in my PC at home.)
If anyone ever visits Branson...this is a great place to go, and allow yourself a solid 2 hours to walk it...unless you are like me...then allow yourself 3+ hours. (I read EVERYTHING)!

OH yea...G...I told him YOU were the one that I heard about it from...and told him where you live! He was impressed!   :003:
