Great shots!
The '49 photo is labeled Panama City, Fla. The '59 Pontiac was Dad's, too. He bought that as a replacement for the '54.

I love that '67 Delta 88 convertible, the '67 and '68 models had such distinctive faces on them. Someone around the corner had a Delmont sedan up until last year, but no whitewalls. My wagon was designated an 88 earlier in their run, and quit maybe when the last rear wheel drive 88 was made. I did have a 1959 Dynamic 88 flattop, didn't keep it long enough to get whitewalls, and a 1965 Jetstar sedan with whitewalls. I love the '62s from top to bottom as well, every line on them is perfect. More whitewalled 88s please! I love all those family pics too.

Am I correct in thinking the color on the '63 88 is Midnight Mist? Really sharp!

VERY NICE "All Hail the 88s!" (I just wish regular ol' or narrow white walls weren't so DAMN hard to find or buy anywhere... seems just a few years ago the Tire Salesman at least KNEW what you were talking about!! Now, they all just wanna sell me White Raised Letter Tires! LOL! Oh well; guess the Specialty manufacturers like Coker and Diamond Back will get more and more of our Biz!?

Heres my 88 before the accident. In the process of putting her back together and making her complete again.

Also, 2 out of 4 whitewalls counts right? LOL
