Curbside Classic CA Vacation Outtake Look What Just Pulled Into The Parking Lot Edition: 1948 Dodge
I was just packing up at control central here at Peets in Half Moon Bay, when I see this old Dodge drive by the window and park in front of the super market next door. It’s driver is elderly, but very much not the “granny” mold. And it has a bike rack on the back of it! This is a regular driver, from all the evidence.
This is only a few parking spaces away from where the other elderly female driver parked her 1971 Opel Manta. Maybe I should stay here longer! Or was it the same driver?

The local service station next to my folks house used a pair of the old Fluid drive 48 Dodges as push cars to retrieve dead cars without the hassle of a wrecker. The front bumpers were wrapped in 2" hawser rope as a cushion. Or if need be a tow rope. Try doing that with a Charger. The sedan wasnt much, but the business coupe was bee-yoot- tee-full.
It is definitely a daily driver. I see the car on the road periodically as I head to work from Pacifica. With the bike usually attached.
