Old Cars spotlights the Eldon Slaughter Collection

Old Cars Weekly

Eldon Slaughter sent us pics of his collection. He added….

I am sending in photos of my herd, I have done all the body work, painting on all these projects. While working in St Louis, I even sewed the interior on the wagon.

'73 Opel GT with 75K miles
1940 Chevy pickup, pulled out of a corn crib and restored over 3 winters, 350 V8 with R700 trans
1956 Chevrolet 210 2-door wagon, restored over 3 winters, 327 V8 with 400 auto
1965 Suzuki X6 Hustler, bought when in the service as a basket case, repaired on ship and rode back and forth to base. My son found it in a barn about 4 yrs. ago, and I restored it back to the way it was. It still has the military gate pass on front forks and Chip sticker on it.
1959 Cushman Truckster, this will be one of my next projects.
