Title: On the road again
Post by: Barnum on May 25, 2016, 09:08:19 PM

So after its 45 year slumber this Aero is on the road again! Still have some things to do, but it is roadworthy once again. Thanks to everyone that has helped with info and experience from here.

Thanks!  This pic was taken today.....the first joy ride :)While I have had to do a lot of . long overdue servicing,  It is basically the way it was when it got traded in in 1971.

Really nice looking car Barnum! I have always liked these Aeros. To me, they were by far the best looking of the mid-'50s smaller cars (my apologies to the Henry J, Rambler, and Hudson Jet fans  :) ). And from the articles I've read about the Aeros, they were one of the best engineered also.

They really were well engineered and ahead of their time. And with OD can hold its own with todays cars.
