Seen Better Days

by hocusfocus

A workhorse for a Toronto distillery now sits on display at the same site, which, however, has been re-jigged to become a tourist mecca featuring avant-garde art galleries, boutique shops, & charming, expensive restaurants.

Giulio: I don't know.

By the way, in another post, I will identify the make, model and year of this old vehicle.

It was asking to be photographed wasn't it. With the look of the new rear tyres, it IS a goer.
Both the *istDS and the K5 are incurably addicted to old glass

Still looks like a sturdy runner. It sounds a great location, history, art galleries and restaurants.

This is a Fargo pickup (1.5 tons) from the 1940's. Note the word "Fargo" upside down on the left front greasecap. Fargo trucks changed little in appearance during the 40's. I doubt it still runs because, for one thing, the gas cap is off and the tank is probably filled with water by now. But I really don't know for sure.
