Kenny J.'s Excellent Big M Adventure
Author: Kenny J. (Show all albums)

I took a drive up to one of the places where Forward Look cars go to die and donate their parts for the others still on the road. Here are some pictures from my May, 2009 visit.

Where the M in "Big M" comes from...........


Somebody purchased the driver's side fender of this '56 Olds and simple took the section he needed.


A vintage U.S. Highway 99 sign hangs in John's engine shed.


This '59 Plymouth wagon came to Big M via the Bay Area.


Both rear quarter glass pieces and some of the side trim from this vehicle has joined my small "fleet" of '59 wagons.


This parts wagon surrendered most of its roof.


Don't let the wrong color fool you.........this is a real Fury.


Here's a solid, finned hauler.


Lookee here.........a '59 Plymouth four door hardtop with the "toilet seat" fake spare tire cover on the trunk lid.


With some ambition, a little elbow grease and some spare change, this sedan could be cruise-ready in a couple of weekends. Seriously, I was able to get some samples of green door panel vinyl from this picked over '59 Plymouth to use as samples just in case I decide to redo my black two door wagon in green.


Here's a 440 and Torqueflite from a motor home,complete with tranny-mounted parking brake. I asked if this was a 413, but John said it is a 440. Just what Chaney ("dukeboy") needs for his next project. The dog dish hub cap is from a '66 Chevy. '65 Chevys use and identical cap, but with black paint instead of read.


The replacement hood on this Maverick doesn't seem to line up very well. At least it's protecting the engine from rain, which can fill up the cylinders and ruin it.
