Former Chicago '55 Gasser

[69 Post Sedan]

I was at a friends house last week and this '55 Gasser was there. He said it came from the Chicago area. Does anyone remember this car?

http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif '55. What else is there? I see a '57, a (35 ?)sedan, and a NICE Standard sign. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif

The other 55 is a Business Coupe...I believe. It does not have a back seat. I'm not sure what the other one is right off hand.

Dan...I mean Kurt!

Lots of neet stuff here. I missed the Mobil sign, a 50's gas pump and what looks like a late 30s PU in the background.
The '57 next to the '55 looks to be an original V8 car; probably a 150 series if it's a business coupe. GREAT candidate for a JR. Stocker!

I'm trying to gather info re: this "55". It could be one of two cars running on the northwest side of Chicago. My first pick was "Old Ugly" the driver hung around Super Dog Mil.& Devon. My second pick would be "The Polish Hop" he ran the same area and sometimes on Harlem ave from the kennedy X south to Irving pk road.

I think the guy told me that the color is "Allis Chambers" orange.
