Grandpa's 1955 Packard

My grandfather's 1955 Packard Clipper.  Grandpa was a pastor and often traveled in the early days of his ministry.  After driving thousands of miles and saving money, he purchased his first (and only, that I know of) brand-new car.  This was taken on one of his road trips at a motel around 1956. View full size.

Bold colors

I love the bold colors that cars in the 1950s had. Today's car are boring with their drab monotonous earth-tone colors.
