Other vintage - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Who here doesn't like vintage considering the crowd. What else you got besides trucks?

Motivated by this table I'm trying to get, it's on the bucket list. He "doesn't" want to ship but has already talked himself into how easy to disassemble. I told him I'd make it worth his while, see what happens, Michigan to Nevada.

I'm guessing the cost to ship is 1.5 the price of the set, but the price is real good. I'd be in about 1100.

Not here yet, see what happens. The seller called and sounds motivated to ship it though.

He says "probably about $60 to ship"

I'll bet closer to $400 before boxes and that.

Every once on a while a nice set comes up, but they all seem to be on the East coast.

COOL
You have the jump seat for the kids also , that brought back a memory

**special-K** · 01-05-2022, 08:25 PM

Nice set. I hope you get it soon. We have a bunch of antique malls you can find that stuff and so much more in.

Just about everything I own is either vintage, hand-made, or homemade. I remember when I bought my '90 Harley brand new, after only owning old Bikes. Guys were asking what was up with that and my answer was, "I live in an old house, I drive old trucks, I work on old houses, s;eep in an old bed with my old lady. I wanted something to just ride!". Now that thing is 32 years old! I have a folder on the 'puter called "My Stuff" with pictures of vehicles as well as a folder called "Stuff". The problem is, without wanting to, I somehow dragged it and dropped it into some other folder and have yet to find it. Computers can frustrate me... Argh! I just hope it didn't somehow get deleted... Double Argh!! Doggone sensitive electronic POS, helps you when you don't want no dang help!

Seems like the search function could help you find it.

There is a search function in my folders? I'll have to look into that. Thanks

EDIT: I get nothing. I hate computers sometimes. I'll tap and tap on the mouse pad and get no response. Other times it detects a double tap when I only tapped once, and also detects a slight lateral slide so that as soon as I lift my finger a folder has been moved to a location I have to guess or search for. Usually it will be the next folder or two to the right. If this folder and sub-folders were deleted, how could that happen when I never had my finger anywhere near 'delete' up top, and never tapped the drop down that asks if I am sure I want to delete? I hate assistance I never asked for, with computers. "Stop trying to figure out what YOU think I want!", is what I always think (out loud sometimes).

**71CHEVYSHORTBED402** · 01-05-2022, 11:25 PM

He was surprised to learn the table alone would cost about $200. By the time shipping & handling is over, a guy could just as well buy a new table

I like it

My only fear would be they don't pack it right...........Happens all the time vintage parts, to me it seems

Not much in the way of antique malls here, I like them too, just don't seem them often.

I'll start with my house, 1857 log home. The small garage I recently built has German siding and wavy glass windows to match the house. My newest vehicle is a '95. I cook with vintage cook wear and eat off of vintage dishes. In my house I have vintage light fixtures and all the door hardware is vintage. Medicine cabinets, mirrors, furniture, pictures on the wall, lawn furniture, bicycles, it just goes on. I collected vintage toys for years, old signs, too. All I need now is an old lady

30 some years ago when you couldn't buy new light fixtures in a vintage style, I found a tinsmith and had him make five copper lantern style wall fixtures for outside lighting and two antiqued tin pie plate sconces for over my fireplace. I guess those are becoming actual vintage now

Wow! That's a beautiful kitchen man.

I like that little Farmall Cub! We have one, and it was running up until about 10 years ago. It's sitting under a covered shed beside the barn on 4 flat tires. I think it's a '47 model.

I collect Hot Wheels also. Here’s a TikTok I made a while back of some of my redlines and older blackwall cars.

What year is that? My step-dad had similar, not quite as old though. I only got to drive it 1-2 x, it wasn't used much or broken.

I’ve always heard it was a 1947, but my uncle says it’s a 1949. It wouldn’t take a lot to get it running again. It ran about 15 years ago. My uncle did a vegetable garden with it. Some new parts he put on it are still fairly new bright red looking.

i drove past a guy cruising on an old Farmall yesterday. It had a lot of patina on it

but it looked complete and it was still kicking. If it had a for sale sign on it I would have slammed on my brakes. I've been jonesing for an old tractor. I missed out on the last one that was for sale. Somebody moved faster than I did.

You snooze you lose. Same old story.

I would like to get it professionally restored and take it around to parades & car shows, but if we did spend the money on it, we have nowhere enclosed where we could keep it. I'm not gonna drop a load of money on it, only to have it decline again under that covered shed it's under now.

My son just graduated with his Engineering Degree and accepted a pretty good job locally. He's talking about getting married to his little sweety and building a new house on our farm and building a big covered drive thru barn. If he pulls the trigger on that, I'll probably pull the trigger on getting the Cub restored.

There are some absolutely spotless ones on the web! Pretty shiny red little babies.

Seeing that Massey Ferguson sitting there:

I drug mine out of a field, where it had been sitting for a while.

The previous owner towed me home with his Massey.

My parents had a table like that when I was a kid, except the top was gray and the chairs were red and white

67ChevyRedneck · 01-06-2022, 11:09 AM

Wow did that bring back memories. My grandparents used to take me to a mom n pop breakfast place (that was awesome) in the 80's and their tables and chairs all looked like those. Pretty sure I recall they had a mix of yellow and green.
