Timothy Maikshilo Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Great pictures Paul!

Green Dash Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Great pictures Paul! I've shared this one of my Grandfather with his Crosley in the early 1940'sMy Dad said he and his friends would see a Crosley at a traffic light and run over and lift it by the rear bumper so the wheels would just spin when the driver accelerated. I wasn't completely sold on that until I saw the car for the first time.
