Tolar, Texas is much like other small Texas towns – if you blink, you’ll pass right on through. In a recent passing, I stopped for just a couple minutes as the sun was starting to come down. Like my dad, the antique car caught my eye.

Oh these old cars…what an amazing find! Great shots! Texas has a few “Don’t Blink” towns.
Thanks! The car just happened to be sitting at an old gas station. Quite a cute set-up!
Great old cars.
I’m jealous of what you see and having a poutin is making me hungry.! Good job on the article’s , can’t wait to see the next few stories .
Here’s a quick story for you , had an open house at a distributors this past weekend, and he has a Amish customer and in some small talk , he ask if any one in the area , seen his half brother lately ? I surprised to hear this and ask my distributors wife how does he have a half brother ? , she replies, He’s a MIDGET , only half as tall of the rest of the Amish , so they call him HALF BROTHER . LOL ! That’s Funny .
Oh Ya ,the NY Rangers are in the winning circle, SORRY ! Love You DAD

I love coming across places like this. Makes you think back and wonder what it use to be!
I love the small little towns tucked away in the expansive Texas landscape and the photos of the car is outstanding.
Me too! They’re like little traveling treasures!
Great pictures! Love the old car and you just can’t beat a Texas sunset!
Some of these sunsets are the best in the Hill Country!
Love love love little old towns! So much history, and of course great photo opps. Your pictures are great!
Thanks! I’ve passed thru this town so many times, I’m not sure how this is the first time I’ve just pulled over. I think it was the old car and that great Texas sunset!
