Where is everyone #5

Shooter was giving grand theft auto charges a thought on a 56 Belaire sports coupe few pages back.

 

3,8,13 was our main channels lol. Channel 11 came around in the 80’s.

3,8,& 13 all have their towers out on Barkers Ridge not far from me. Channel 13 is the tallest at 1300 feet tall.

 

There were so many engines combos, but 56 265 dual 4's available I think 265hp

1957 a 283,283hp dual 4's
Then the 283 fuelie with fuel injection only in a 2door sports coupe as a option. Not recalling hp, 310,320?

 

Think I’m younger than you, but I can remember getting both.

Got color TV in the mid 70’s, and we got a window shaker A/C in 83 after uncle Lester passed away.

 

Did you grow up on Shock Theatre?

 

When I worked for R&L Drilling we had rigs called Wagner Drills. They would mount inside the elevator shaft and run on the guide rails up and down the shaft. They were 3 phase rigs. Use to hook our 220 single phase welder into our 3 phase panel box, some just couldn’t get it lol. We only used the welder in short periods.

 

I’m looking forward to getting near the Truck World again..... for cheesecake.

 

I hauled a 69 Camaro down to the Corvette museum in Bowling Green, KY for a Freind, hauled a orange / white 56 bel air back for my buddy. Gotta love the Tri-5’s!! Wish I would have kept my 55.....

Can you imagine one of today’s kids putting gas in this?? Hey...!!! No gas cap lol.

 

Even 70's-80's cars. My gutless cutlass was behind the licence plate.

 

I don't know why your post made me think of this. Maybe because most of WV is pretty remote for broadcast signals. On an extended stop at the Bridgeport rest area I was pleasantly surprised to discover all the major networks coming in with strong signals. Apparently the "high ground" for Clarksburg, Fairmont, etc is just a few miles from there and bristling with tv transmitters.

My Dad's daily driver is a 92 Chevy 3500 with a 6/8 drop. One of those flip down license plate holders is used to hide the receiver hitch.
