Much like the family albums ‘n four-speeds posts that we do here, Nelson Coryell shared some photos of the many cars his family owned while he was growing up for SIA #93, June 1986. As Nelson wrote, the cars were driven as cars were meant to be driven, not as collector cars, so the value in sharing photos such as these is in the authenticity of the era. After all, who nowadays would run a light-colored 1941 Cadillac without whitewall tires?
By the way, if you have photos of your family’s cars that you would like to share with us for our family albums ‘n four-speeds features, let us know.
