Chris Salisbury's Monodale Garage

His house was built in 1902.


Ron's car sits in this garage which was a hog barn in 1902.
The only painter Chris recommends is located in the old Monument Cafe building.

An English wheel


Good for making compound curves


Darleen, June, Pat, and Laurie


I forgot to check on the other side of the rafter for the rear plate.


1967 MGB-GT


A race worthy MGB with a Ford engine.


Pockata Pockata


A very classic 1959 Cadillac


Nine Model A's at Russ Salisbury's garage
Many asked where the airplane was, but a windsock is is all he had.
Windsocks can also be found along windy highways, and it was.


John & Claude look at two of the three 1967 VWs.
Russ is Chris' stepfather.


1930 MG M-type


The engine produced 27 brake horsepower at 4000 rpm.


The car could reach 65 mph and get 40 mpg.


This wagon was shipped to the Hutto train stop for the Anderson family in 1895.
The new bows and canvas were made by local Amish.


Russ had another car that reminded me of a few movies. The Lagonda had a top speed of 149 mph.
The DB-5 James drove in the movies was a much better car than the Bentley he drove in the books.
What's under the hood is important.
