RIDE-CT covers classic cars, trucks and motorcycles in Connecticut. It has model/owner profiles, galleries and videos on shows, new model reviews, and news.
Great video! What a fantastic story! 👏👏👏 With so many commands and their difficulty, it's no wonder the owner is doing so well at his age! 😅 What a difference from today's cars that "drive themselves"! 😅🤦🤦🤦🤦 Beautiful specimen! 😍😍😍 What a shame that the son prefers others! I would love to inherit one of these!
The owner has done a great job on the gas station. Might there soon be a second one with a different company's signage? That's what RIDE-CT is hearing.
It looks as if they took the trouble to actually move the driver back for their business coupe, instead of just paving over the back seat leaving a huge bustle effect.
NAH. Cars ALWAYS Look MUCH BETTER When Restored As Close As Possible To Original NEW Condition. You Can See Rusty Grills, Faded Paint, Worn Out Upholstery And Neglected Bumpers At ANY Junkyard. Even The Engine Is Smoking Needing A Ring Job. Don't Be So Cheap. PRESERVE What You Have And You'll Enjoy Driving It Much More. Or Sell It To Someone Else That WILL Invest The Time And Money To Restore It. SHINE And GLEEM ALWAYS Looks Much Better Than DULL And RUSTY...
Glad you're joking. Politics of any kind needs to stay out of the classic car arena. We all need a "neutral zone" to decompress in and enjoy life, no matter who you're rooting for...
Having grown up during the '50s and having had a Mobil station as my dad's go to, I love this, plus I'd never known that the Pegasus always faced the rest rooms! Thank you Rob, next time through it's good to know that it is ok to take a shot of my Morgan next to the pumps!
Rob still has some work to do on the station. I'm now hearing another gas station recreation is in the works, Hope to have details maybe later in the week,
Had the same 3 window coupe with 55 Chevy v8 w/ 3 spd. Yellow w/ VW seats in northend Seattle 1969 .Traded it for a 57 Chevy W/stolen Camero running gear.
That car deserves to be restored. It is a beautiful design. I can see leaving it with its' patina if it were a more common, run of the mill car but this one is special. Please sell it to someone who will restore it.
@@ride-ct-classiccars <----<< Meanwhile the cancer grows and makes restoration more difficult. It should be preserved as soon as possible. It is such a beautiful car.
This year, the President and also the Dictator, are my favorite models. There's a caramel brown Dictator floating around out there on the internet, perfectly restored, and one of the most beautiful cars you'll ever see.
I once saw a 4dr 58 Mercury Montclair that sat in the driveway of a house I past many times. I could tell it had been sitting for years, but it was all there, nothing missing. One day I decided I was going to stop and ask about it, and after all those years of sitting it was gone. I regretted not stopping the first time I saw it😞
That car deserves a full-on restoration in my opinion. Let everyone see what it was like brand new. Plenty of old Ford's and Chevy's to see. But one of these? 👍
Probably not. There are 11 shows across the state on that day and I usually try to rotate the shows that I attend, although there are a few shows that I go to every year because of their size and the models that they draw. Haven't made a decision yet on Sept. 15, but there are many I've never sampled.
