2016-03-05 Melrose on 7th Ave Street Faire and Car Show

[waynehulsey]

Haven't been with the building program too much lately so trying to catch up on editing photos for various shows since our season is getting started again. This is a nice street faire that the neighborhood businesses and association puts on and usually have an interesting turn out of cars.

Some unusual stuff there - what's the history on the swollen '48 Chevy sedan?

[waynehulsey]

The original owner had some kind of spinal column problem were he had limited movement. So he had a shop do the conversion were he could walk into the back without having to bend and twist. I think it was original a Denver area car and was build there, unless the memory has short circuited with something else.

Neat...I remember going to a few of those events, was close to me, I lived off 7th St near Missouri..

I thought you were more over towards the Biltmore area east of the 51. You were right in by my dentist and optometrist. We're finally getting under a 100 and actually clicking a few high 60's at night.

Between 7th and 12th St off Missouri.  About a mile and a half from the Biltmore.   Drove on Missouri or Bethany Home for years.  It's funny, in the 9 years I lived there, I only worked in Phoenix for 6 months, downtown.  The rest of my jobs were East Valley--Chandler, Tempe, Scottsdale.
