Art Johnson’s Roadside
Diner
--------------------------------------------------------------- One place that definitely was a scene out of American graffiti in the 60’s was Art Johnson's on Route 1 in Norwood Mass. It was an old time burger joint that catered to the street rod crowd until it closed sometime in the 70's. How many of you raced at the lights? Art Johnsons was famous amongst the hot rodder’s to line up at the lights and drag race down Route 1. The old 55 chevy’s even with a beefed up 283 engine and a 3 speed shifter on the floor couldn't keep up with the mid 60's muscle cars.----------------------------------------

William. B. MacGregor Jr. Watercolors the Junkyard Artist
William B. MacGregor, Jr. was born in Medfield, MA, the son and grandson of Norfolk Hunt Club kennel masters. Many of his family members were self taught artists, woodcarvers, automobile mechanics and veterans of foreign wars including his father a WW1 US Army veteran. Bill is a graduate of Medfield High School, Wentworth Institute, and Northeastern University. His engineering career, from which he is now retired, included working for military and aerospace companies in industrial engineering and IR optics. His painting incorporates “old skool” mechanical and civil drafting tools and he uses a mixed medium of watercolors, acrylics and inks. Two rabbits are often in quite a few of his paintings. Look for them. He is frequently commissioned by United States Naval officers to create paintings of their ships and aircraft carriers on nautical charts. In May,2018, and for one year, four of Bill’s automotive related paintings were on display at the Larz Anderson Auto Museum in Brookline, MA
