I believe those are Willys Aero's next to both of those wagons. Local Willys dealer must be doing well.

A reminder of why I hate the city so much. I get nervous just looking at a photo of a crowd.

At least back then most folks had some respect for their fellow man. A few years back I walked from Radio City Music Hall to Penn Station on 33rd Street. It felt like a powder keg the whole way but I guess city people are used to it. It ain't for me.

Did they ever build the FC190?
Jimmy/Slowroller:
I don't think so.
I don't think so.
From Instagram:
It seems like that would require a strong 4-speed transmission with a granny gear. I don’t think the T90 would be up to it. When starting out iwith a load on hills, first would be too high, and in reverse it would blow the reverse idler out the side of the case. Did they have another transmission option?
