Motorcycles, sidecars and an Indian Servicar

 1916 Oregon plates on the front
 Cool oil sumps on the island
 All optioned up
 First time I've seen an Indian Servicar, but also interesting is the Packard Service sign's shape
 1924 police, and interesting sidecar windshield
1926 Batimore taxi. Pretty cool, but I think history demonstrates this didn't work out
found on The Old Motor.com http://theoldmotor.com/

A variety of snowmachines from The Old Motor

 What some used to do with their Harleys in the winter
 Cat tracked and hydraulic rammed with solid front tires.
 Wow, land train... I can't recall seeing one before. Very cool
either a homemade snow machine from car parts, or a conversion kit...  in front of the woman on the right is a door I think, and behind her the body seems to have some sheet metal going up the side from the frame

1919 Harley Davidson registration and cautionary page about stolen Harleys

Great variety of old advertising from QuestionableAdvice.tumblr.com (Centuries of Advertisements and Advice)









It's like Shorpy for advertisements! Very cool collection, enjoy more at http://questionableadvice.tumblr.com/

harley drawings from 1918, some with sidecars

 I can't see much that is different in the above and below, just the luggage rack over the back wheel


Balloon tires so big they look cartoonish, 1915 Harley Davidson Baby Cup race car

extremely great photos from 21 studs tumblr part 1

pre 1940's gas station, just an awesome photo, and a rare early color one
Only advertising big wheel I've ever seen, great idea!
Unusual Superbird with a 1970's funly paint job


3 ads in one dealership... Rambler, Jackson, and India, I like that slogan "No sand too deep, no hill too steep"

What are they doing with this elephant? Trying to break the car?
Rockwell was such a talented artist and pretty good at humor too


Clint Eastwood

Katherine Hepburn?

Petty on the left, Yarborough on the righ if I recall correctly, in the Woods Brothers Mercury
Jimi Hendrix

Why did Ford have more ugly Falcon models than good looking Mustangs?http://21studs.tumblr.com/ is where all of these came from

Looked through onthelosthighway.tumblr

Great home built kart... get a look at the steering wheel! Photo was taken by John Gutman, in Georgia, 1937 http://www.johngutmann.org/viewer/index.html and incredibly, ridethemachine.tumblr posted this yesterday... but I found it on "onthelosthighway.tumblr" today

The look of a maniac, ain't that a grin!
Dangerous and deadly racing.
http://onthelosthighway.tumblr.com/ is a guy who took these photos of his dad, and his dad's 1924 original and untouched Harley Davidson
http://onthelosthighway.tumblr.com/ is mostly tattoos, it's NSFW, but it also has a lot of respect for Johnny Cash, Hank Williams, and Babe Ruth.
