Thanks to both for the imgbb information.
Photobucket long ago blocked outside links and orphaned hundreds of pictures I had there. If I paid for a pro account, I could have used url links to them.
They have had several restructures of the site as I salvaged and deleted what pictures were there. The ones there had been downsized in quality when I downloaded them back to my local drive.
Recently I read that Photobucket had been bought by a company that owns lots of other stuff on the net. I found they would now allow outside linking. BUT I found they had blocked my account because I still had over 250 pics stored there. Apparently that's their limit for free accounts. But in the end apparently they lost enough "business" that it hurt when they suddenly blocked outside links and made links already posted around the web to the pics on their sites useless. LOL

Neat, but I think he's optimistic, good luck with sale.
It was restored and set up as an ice cream truck when he bought it, so it wasn't cheap, but he thought he would make some of it back by taking it to car shows and selling ice cream, along with selling it during the summer at various hot spots where people tended to go. He was disappointed to learn that the margins on ice cream would require him to sell more of it than he possibly could in order to turn a profit, so after a few years he sold it on and was glad to be done with it. It became more of a job than he wanted.

I used to see all the bare chassis being stored and run around the area of the plant when driving west from downtown Union City. Brought back memories of long ago.

And the Dayton Art Institute is a really nice art museum.

The challenge is that it's almost 400 miles from where I live, and so I'd need to wait for some days off for a trip like that. Seems like you'd need at least a full day there.
The Packard museum is only an hour from my house. I'm going to have to get up there.

I've been to a car show there on the property. It's a couple miles north of I70, about 10 miles north of "downtown" Dayton.

They have some events on the property. I'd like to see the red mustang car show.

I'd been there but it's been probably twenty years. Ironically, the "National Packard Museum" is in Warren, OH. I've been there a few times. It always struck me as odd that there isn't a unified Packard museum a la the Studebaker National Museum.
I was there in South Bend last Saturday for the Concours at Copshaholm, which is right behind the Stude Museum and was the home of the Oliver family, of the Oliver Chilled Plow and Tractors family. I love touring old homes and that one was terrific. There were about 70-75 cars, which isn't a lot, but they were top-notch stuff....mostly prewar and a fair amount of foreign makes, but also had a row of 'letter' Chrysler 300's from '56 to '63. There was a row of Studebaker Presidents of various vintages too.
Parked in front of the Stude Museum was a late-model Rolls. A friend pointed out that the "RR" in the center of each wheel was pointing straight up (correctly). A couple friends later told me that the centers have a bearing and weight to ensure they always 'park' in the correct position. Now that's luxury! LOL
I drove 15 miles west of South Bend to see the former Studebaker Proving Ground, now owned by Navistar and they still use the old three-mile high-speed oval. The property is 800 acres and the trees that spell out "STUDEBAKER" from the air, half a mile long, are still there. I took a pic of the old clubhouse/mansion, which is where '60's Stude president Sherwood Egbert and his family lived. It was used as a backdrop for a lot of brochure photos. I should try again to post a couple pics I took here.
Ate at an Amish buffet on Route 20 in Nappanee, IN on the way home which I loved and enjoyed the leisurely ride home. Wife was in FL visiting her Dad with her brothers.
P.S. to fintail--that '60 Ponton is still across the street from the old Studebaker Administration Building. There's a boat next to it now, which I can't say I remember from last year.
