1950 Ford that I had near the end of my tour. photo: George Hickok This car had been used as a taxi. When I bought it in '52 it had been stripped as a parts car and the company was out of business. Don't remember what I paid for it but it wasn't much. They gave me all the parts I needed to get it on the road. Engine had so much blowby it would blow the oil filler cap off if you got on it too hard. The company went back into business and wanted the car back so I sold it to them for 700 bucks before I went back to the States in early '53. Had a lot of fun in that car. Geo. Hickok (10-6-07) |
