  1. Hmmm... I'm almost sure this is not in Germany. In the background you have the U-Boot pen, look's like single corridor one so it would be former U-Bootwaffe base near La Rochelle in La Pallice port.

    1. wow.. well, I just find the photos and post them with the information provided. I can't take the time to try and verify the info, nor the location. But I sure don't mind when other people do!

    3. No problem lad, I'm glad I could help. You search for cool photos of cars and this is for sure one of them, sometimes description will be wrong or no description at all. But if we can help you get more info it's great, even better when this lead to more great photos of cars!

    1. Good heavens no. I suppose like all other Army cars in 1957 they are olive drab

    2. Chevy 150 4-door staff cars of US Army ware painted in olive drab with white descriptions and chromed bumpers.

      Yep... chromed, that's the style of 50's man!
