This car is not really in very good condition but, it’s acceptable. I hope to find one in better shape so I can replace this car someday soon.

1953 Studebaker 2 Door

Back in 2002 I ran across this car on Market Street but did not have my camera. I was really disappointed because it was in such great shape and such a rare car. About two weeks later, I spotted the car on 18th street just a few blocks from our house. This time I was ready. I hope you like this rare coupe.

In 1959 Chevrolet introduced the Corvair. It was called unsafe at any speed by Ralph Nader and the poor man’s Porsche by many others. In 1972, a government study exonerated the Corvair, but that was about ten years too late.

I saw this car on a walk almost exactly a year ago today. I’d like to see it now and see if the work was completed. The body was patched, sanded and primed and generally looked great. This was a very large car. In fact, a 1961 convertible Continental was used by Presiden Kennedy in Dalls in 1962 when he was assassinated.

Oh, wow. A real classic, the 1961 Cadillac convertible. This one was parked right outside my door in San Francisco. This one did leak oil though. Of course, the red color is right on, this is a classic.

You actually see quite a few of these cars in San Francisco. I have some other shots to post but for now, ponder this one. I bet it collects a lot of dust and dirt. I wonder how you clean it? I think it’s a Honda.

A 1962 Compact Car
Click on pictures to Z O O M in.
In 1959 Studebaker introduced the Lark as a compact car. I saw this quote on the web.
“This 1962 lark is being built for a wife to take cruising. The Lark was a “compact” car built between 1959 and 1963 by The Studebaker – Packard Corporation. The Studebaker Lark was a car design that used the core body and panels of the full-sized 1953-1958 Studebaker models. The car was built as a compact car, achieved by reducing the front and rear overhangs and shortening the wheelbase.”
This car was a 1962 which was at the peak of the production curve.

This 1951 Buick was found in an industrial area of San Francisco. It is ready for either a complete restoration or a junkyard. Since this was taken in 2003, I have not seen it around so I can’t say which way it went. I guess none of us would look very well after over 50 years on the street.
