This past weekend there was an air show in West Houston, and I thought it would be cool to take a few pictures of my survivor F-85 W-31 next to a couple of planes. So, drove down, and asked if they didn't mind if I toke a couple of pictures. Here we go...

 

Nice of them to let you do that... Nice pics.

 

Thanks, I finished just in time, before the storms

 

Beautiful car! Thanks for sharing!

 

That is sweet! Nice pics, great looking car.

 

That looks damn good !

 

I recognize the T-28. A hot rod by itself. Trainer and did combat in in Thailand, Cambodia and Laos. Very nice car and airplane.

Cars and airplanes. The perfect mix! Very good pics.

 

Wow, sexy Sports Coupe.


Is this the one we were chatting about recently? (Thanks for sharing some engine basics for my build!!)


Ryan

 

Really nice looking survivor! Cool pictures.

 

Both look ready to fly; sharp car.

 

Yes

 

Thanks! And thank every one comments!

 

Very, very cool car.


Thanks again for the engine info!!


Ryan

 

Hi Joe, beautiful car. Cool planes, hope all is well with you

Steve

 

Great shots! Love those old planes. Pretty partial to the Olds as well.

Do you have any more pics? I can identify the second pic as a Lockheed C-60. I see the T 28 has been identified. Thanks for all those that served.

 

Way cool!

 

iirc, sold new in Hawaii?
heater delete?
how many miles?
imo, needs polyglas :-)
but a really nice car!!!

 

You know its not too crazy to think, a navy pilot could have once owned this car. I know, a little far fetched.

Who needs a heater in Hawaii?

I understand heater delete was a little harder to get in the coming years after 70.

Regardless, thanks for posting up.

 

Really like your F85, thanks for the photos.

 

The car was sold new in Honolulu at Aloha Motors, and was on jack stands for over 30 years before I bought the car; I am the second owner. Car currently has 44,000 miles, and yes, I do need polyglas tires...Car still has the original Firestone in the trunk that has never been mounted.

 

What options?

W31
B90
.............?

Is it Silver or White?

Fantastic car!!!!

Ryan

Under hood picture

 

Sweet!

 

Looks good Joe!

 

Very nice.

 

What a beaut. God I love sport coupes. So sexy them 2 door sedans.
W27. Like Man U got all the bells and whistles

 

Stopped to visit Joe in 2011 on my way to OCA Nats. and Hot August Nights car show in Reno, Nev. He also has a very nice and fast W31 4 speed hardtop. Unloaded my F85 W31 from my enclosed trailer and took some picture of all three W31 s. I also let him drive my F-85, the only person who has driven it besides me. That is how much I trust Joe..............!

 

Great Pics, love the car!!

I know what ya mean, but I don't see this as a 2-door sedan. A coupe and a sedan are different IMHO.

Maybe a new thread of this can of worms is needed?
