ReplyDeleteSmall world, while out scoping for vehicles to photograph I rolled up on your 1951 Home Wrecker ('51 Chevy 3100 Cab) creation parked rather perched atop a hill outside of Superior Motor Service at 375 S. Flowers Mill Road, Langhorne PA. She is a piece of rolling artwork and I'm thrilled to have the opportunity to have photographed her and learn more about it via this web page. Very cool.
