Unfortunately my current contribution to this thread would be all my salvageable belongings after my house flooded.

 

But I do have some of my grandfather's old plates on the wall.

Well....the intent is to show what makes you smile or one of your favorites...nobody can judge that! Best wishes to your home recovery...

Sorry to hear that.  My grandfather always kept old license plates as well, from WV.  I always envision myself restoring my old 72 Chevy truck and driving around on country roads in WV when I get older, trout fishing with an old dog and sporting a 1972 WV license plate loud and proud.  One of these days!

Here’s my contribution. Got a few pics. Got a few shell casings from all the aircraft I worked on and an old command patch that was going to be thrown out.

I blew up the motor in my Dad’s 69 Camaro at the drag strip. He jb welded the rod that was broke into three pieces to a plaque and gave it to me for Christmas that year. He’s gone but I still have the Camaro and the plaque.

I think I see some older oil cans in your pic...I've got a couple that I'll grab a pic of tonight. I was looking at a pic that @dieselfan1 posted and gave me the idea.

So, I will take this off course, think I still have a skate board that I have had since I was 10 years old. Great transportation at that age.

    • Because that is IDIOTIC, much like this question. They've already been forced to do it by past administrations - why would you roll that back when it's a GOOD thing?  WHO IS ARGUING FOR LOWER MILEAGE???? 😂  NOBODY IS!!   I'm certainly not! What I want is RELIABLE vehicles again that are worth the price paid!    I don't get your logic here ...   In 2003 I paid $2,200 for our '86 Grand Marquis. It's STILL running and I've never been inside the engine, aside for the timing cover since it was leaking, so I threw a new timing set in since that makes sense. Transmission is ORIGINAL. Electric pump in the gas tank is ORIGINAL. Rear end is ORIGINAL. I'd have to hit my head REAL hard to want to pay $60k or more for a car that still can't come close to the comfort, seating and storage space, or reliability of this one. Nothing is even in the ball park! Hundreds of thousands of brands and models have been built and sent to the crusher while this one keeps on going!   https://postimg.cc/Z9XRrCSg   I've got a whole fleet of cars, motorcycles, and a truck close to this age for summer and winter. No one could pay me enough to buy anything built this century. I have zero use for any it.
    • Since I'm the one who has to fix them when they break, I'll take vehicles over 30 years old all day, EVERY day, over ANY modern crap. Have you attempted any repairs on anything built after 2006? It's a friggin nightmare, and gets worse the newer the model year.    If I had the will or desire, I can make any car of any age outside of a Model T (I don't have THAT much will ...) just as powerful, comfortable, and have all the tech the new stuff does, and get pretty close in mileage, too. I prefer SIMPLICITY. The less the vehicle has, the less to fix WHEN it breaks, not IF.   I'm glad you snot-nosed punks don't like them. More for us, plus that keeps the prices from climbing more than they already have.👍
    • Bringing this thread back on topic. I just noticed the incredible lack of bright chrome across the entire new lineup. Even the Denali has tinted the brightwork in the grille and has none elsewhere. None of them have chrome bumpers. As far as I can tell there aren't even chrome mirror caps. I'm curious if this also happens out back? Are there no chrome rear bumpers either? This is quite the departure for GMC.
