I have an Original VW Transporter sales booklet from the late 50's my dad got as a kid. It has a picture very similar to that in it.

Random pic.

We have a Random Video thread, but thank you for posting these. The Tucker one was awesome. I never knew they built so many, and those white wall tires crack me up. One incredible machine, the Germans would have been freaking out had they made more of them.

My father in law had a brand new 63.5 R code Galaxie just like that. He sold it in 65. Back then he got a new muscle car every other year or so. He would order the biggest engine, manual trans, and that was it. His list of cars is pretty impressive.

The Galaxie is the only one he still talks about all the time, and the one he misses the most.
