1949 Chevy Pickup

This was parked in a diner's parking lot making any foto with a good background difficult. This is the only one I liked.

Yes, good-looking truck and shot!
That thing is older than me... ;-)

Wow, in great shape for how old it is....also must be ahead of its time as doesn't appear that old in design.....

Pure nostalgia! Sometime at about age 12 I learned to drive with our beat up old 49 Chevy pickup (on the farm we learned to drive at a young age). It's name was Tootles, 'cause tootle along was about all it could do!

A nice capture. Your low point of view really helps accentuate the lines of this beautiful old truck. It's cool that the owner went with period correct, wide white wall tires.

I liked the tires, too.

Nice shot, willard3. You can understand the frustrations I experience all the time in shooting car shows.

Gladly, this old truck seems to have been restored to original condition...as opposed to a current trend of retro-modding. Under that approach, this old beauty would have been subjected to some custom body work, fitted with a modern high performance motor, and given a modern suspension.
