My old Street Scene

These are old pics I found in my file cabinet. My Grandfather was in the Los Angeles PD, City of Vernon back in the 50's and 60's. Some cool old car shots. Also City of Vernon was the first city in California to have Motorcycle Cops carry shotguns....lol

Awesome pics! A shotgun on a scooter is badazz! Like the Terminator!

Those are some neat shots. Keep em coming. Love the shotgun on the bike ala rifle on the horse.

Check out the 348 Tri-Power! What a shame about the '32 Roadster! Hopefully it got fixed!

The others I have are very graphic shots and traffic accidents, don't think it would be good to post a severed head...lol

same here, great pictures. 32 ford was a nice treat. 68 charger getting crushed by the trailer was sad. hope that was just a parked car.
the black 58 chevy shot was cool too.

maybe these should be added to the "regular" old street scenes thread ...

I'm guessing that 348 tri-power is in the wrecked 58 Impala. In that engine shot, you can see it has chrome valve covers and a chrome blower motor housing. You can also see the chrome blower motor housing in the front shot of the wrecked 58 with the hood up. Looks like the 58 has some mild custom touches in the interior too.
