This page will be devoted to some of the old car's I owned
Here's my 1948 Chevrolet Fleetline back in 1978, as you can see the body styles are different, this one is commonly known as a German Helmet or Turtleback. The other difference is the strips on the fenders
This 1948 Chevrolet Truck was a beauty, Two-tone gold and dark brown. I traded my 48 fleetmaster for the this truck back in 1981. This truck had dual straight-pipe exhaust and the spider hub-caps!
This 1948 Chevrolet Fleet-master was purchased back in 1979 in Watsonville California for 800.00 A few years before, this car was used to display the daily specials in front of a meat market. Right in this photo, we already primered it once and were about to give it a new light brown beige color. We also added a fulton sunvisor. I drove this oldie everyday to work from La Puente to the Walnut School District. I later traded for the truck below after my brother smashed the four fenders on the Pomona Freeway
This 1948 Style-master 2 door was a project I didn't really get into. Here's my little brother down on Baja Street in La Puente. Yes it was raining but that never stopped us from working on cars. I bought this car for 400 buck from a guy who brought it from Mexico. My Mom sold it a year later when we moved for 800 bucks
Here's a picture of my 1955 chevy and my friend Tutu Neto and Bucky. I bought this car for 200.00 and stuck a rebuilt 236 engine in it. The first paint job didn't come out to good so I repainted it silver in 1978
As you can see it looked cleaner this color but what I really needed was someone to do the body work and spend more on the paint job. But back then I was making 2.75 an hour as an assembler and had 2 kids. This car ran 1 12inch glass pack and 1 straight pipe. I also had the bumpers and grill rechromed and those spotlights and crossbar hubcaps made it really crazy.
This 70 Impala I bought after getting rid of my 55 which I traded for a 64 impala and then ended up selling and using the money for a down payment. The paint job had purple flake in it so it was Kool when the lights hit it just right.

This 1965 Impala was bought for only $180 dollars and ran for awhile until I blew the head gaskets. I should've just pour some chemicles into the engine to seal the leak but at the time I was way too busy for mechanicing around!
1953 Chevy Bel-air was super sweet here it is at my school Dibble in Hacienda Heights. I traded this baby for  an MGB convertable which was a mistake!
This 53 was sold for 600 bucks as is
1973 Buick Diamond in the back traded this for a two-tone 54 bel-air, another mistake
1970 impala cheap paint screwed up this once super car!
This big butted coupe had some bad to the bone hub-caps which sell now for 2 thousand bucks more than I got for the car, 1400
This Fiat was a nice italian car but the Vegas Heat killed it
Here's my X-Car after they painted it-nice2tone
