^ at 1st glance the sedan driving in the street looked like a 68-72 Nova, then I wondered why there were so many bugs, saw the signs and realized that must be an Opel (?)

I thought it looked like a 67 - 70 Ford Cortina Mk2 , parked at the side of the street next to it is their version of a Chevy Nova - an Opel Diplomat which had a 283 Chevy motor .

The parked car beside the Cortina looks more like a Dodge Dart than an Opel.

that IS a Dodge Dart http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
that plus the Willys Jeep wagon is why the car in the street looked like a Nova at 1st glance

The Rexall Drug King in Hollywood reminds me of an interesting story. I was working in flight test at Edwards AFB in 1992, and had a guy doing some programming for me whose mother-in-law lived in the apartments above that drug store until she was in her 90's and couldn't care for herself any more. Jack hated her, apparently she was a crass old witch, at least that was his side of it. Well his wife insisted "Mom" move in with them, and as time went on she could care for herself less and less, to the extent that Jack, and again he absolutely hated her, was tasked with lifting her on and off the can, and in and out of bed because his wife did not have the strength. None of the in-home care people lasted very long, so there must have been some validity to his opinion of her. Anyhow, Jack was diagnosed with cancer while this was going on, and died in only a couple weeks. Some guys will do anything to get out dealing with the mother-in-law!

Found this great Herbie Hancock track from the 70's on YouTube and the accompanying video is almost 7 1/2 mins of early 70's footage of NYC streets .
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lqtki6I-VTY
Tried to embed the video but it didn't work so you'll have to click on the link above , looks good in HQ full screen .

My Parents in November of 68. That was Dads 55. the first 2 pictures were taken on bankhead Pkwy in Huntsville. The rock wall is still there today. It is the road going up the mountain... I wish he still had that 55. I wish Mom was still around sometimes too. Lou Gehrig's took her from us at 40 years old..

She passed away in 92. Time really flies. Bruce, you surely must have made the trip up Monte Sano Mountain. Thats where those pics were taken. There are several scenic overlooks on the way up and down that road (or pkwy as we call it).
I have several photo albums of cars that I can't find for some reason. I know I have one of drag races in England in the 70's. American cars and British stuff. I'll keep looking around

Just a random shot taken at a business park near the above house.
While clearing out my parent's house, I found an old photo album of my car with 3 pics of when I first bought it, me color sanding it, more of the Gunpowder River pics, and my first show pics. Also included are lots of miscellaneous shots, my first Super Chevy Show, 2nd Super Chevy Show, and my first indoor show.

Yes, it was a 6, powerglide car when I got it. I had done so many cars that were all engine and no brakes or suspension, that I did it the other way on this car. There weren't too many aftermarket suspension parts in the late 70's, so I went GM parts bin shopping. I parted out a 70 442, and got the steering box, Posi rear and front discs for the Malibu. In went a 79 Trans Am front sway bar, (1 1/4") a 72 GTO rear bar (1 1/8") and custom made boxed lower control arms. Had a custom alignment done and a few other tweeks, added Rally wheels and the best 60 series tires I could afford at the time. Took it out for the first drive and discovered the car cornered so well, I couldn't stay behind the wheel. So next came some 79 Z28 buckets. After that was all done, a 71 Belair donated it's 350, turbo 400 for motivation. Headers, dual exhaust, an HEI and an Alum intake with a Q-jet kept me happy for a few years.
In the mid 80's I picked up a 71 402 and started to make it a big block car.
I sold it after losing interest, and I guess the next guy made it an SS396. As a Canadian car though it will come up as a 6/glide if docs are requested from GM of Canada.
I had a lot of fun with that car including autocross and club days at out local road race track, Westwood.
This was back in 79-80 when I would literally have the largest car on the track. Won my share of events too!

Thank you Adam82, for making me spit my beer out at my computer screen. I'll send ya the cleaning bill. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif I never knew they sent cars that way. I guess that explains why the noses of Vegas rusted first. One good rainstorm while being transported, and....
And I still say the Vega GT was a cool looking little car!

They make a really cool Drag car, but I always thought they were the best thing that ever happened to the towing industry

South Brand would be in Glendale, CA and this dealership is probably next-door to Alan Gwynn Chevrolet, where my '67 RS/SS 396 was sold new. AND, there's a bumperless '55 parked at far right! I have a bumperless '55 so this is a double-cool picture!

I'm pretty sure that is "Stick City" in LA. They were a really famous Hi-Performance used car dealer a long time ago. I have a radio commercial from them saved on my computer that'll I'll try to post here shortly. Don't forget to look close at that front row......yep, that's even a flip-top Funny Car! Now that's a used car lot!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mN7Xs9WVNBU&feature=fvw Here it is.....a small snippet of a Stick City radio commercial and a picture of their sign. It's at the very end of this this Beach Boys' "I Get Around" video. You can fast forward thru the song and get to it or just listen to the whole thing....it's always been a great song anyway!

The "Stick City" that I knew of was on Whittier Blvd...which was in Whittier. We used to cruise up Beach Blvd (Hwy 39)from Anaheim to go and check out what they had.
I don't know if they had a location in Glendale at some point? http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif
Found on the HAMB... http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/archive/index.php/t-101275.html

Also...Don Steves Chevrolet was real close to Stick City...if you went up Hwy 39 (Beach Blvd) and made a right onto Whittier Blvd...Don Steves was on the left.
If you made a left onto Whittier Blvd for Beach Blvd...Stick City was on the left. I believe that a "Select Vans" was also nearby?
BTW, Don Steves is still in business...and one of the members here had a car from there?

I remember cruising down to Stick City and on the way home we'd stop by "Sticks Unlimited" on Colorado Blvd. in Pasadena. Anyone recall that one? There was a convertible Corvette funny cay body on the roof of the office and it said Gene Conway's Sticks unlimited! cool. Here's a link to Funny Cars from the past with the Sticks Unlimited Corvette among many famous race cars...

Don Steves Chevrolet sold TWO of the aluminum-front end '62 Impalas and at least one 1963 Z-11 Impala, which I believe was the Tom Sturm-driven car.

Addison, Illinois isn't too far from me. I remember some of these stores when I was a kid. Very sad to see them all gone. Reminds me of a time when America was a great country.
http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Ei2Ik5quiI0/SrhLnspuMoI/AAAAAAAADRU/yQbiuCF-HnE/s1600/robert%2Bhall%2Bvillage%2Baddison%2Bil%2B1976.jpg
WoW..I grew up in Villa Park,Il. just one town south of Addison,and still live a few miles away from there today.
That whole store link speaks to me.
My sister worked at Arthur Treachers during 1975 on St. Charles Rd. in Villa Park.She had to wear those dumb paper hats & uniforms,like in the movie Fast Times at Ridgemont High.I think it's Mickeys today.
We used to frequent the Robert Hall Village store on the N.East corner of North Ave. & Addison Rd. for years.I used to buy model car kits there.My uncle bought his first polyester suit there..LOL.It's a HOBO home store today.
My Mom worked at the ZAYRE on the corner of Lake St. & Addison Rd..She worked many a double shift there.I vividly remember how that place looked at night during the 60's-70's with those outside letters glowing.Ben Franklin 5&10 was on the way there too.
My other sister worked at FAYVA shoes next to Woolco in Villa Park near Victoria Station & Poppin Fresh Pies...I remember their radio commercials..."Do yourself a Fayva.Shop here!"..LOL.
Tom McCann shoes was also on St.Charles Rd. in VP,next to McDonalds,before it went tits up.
JC Pennys outlet was on North Ave, too,where Supreme Lobster is today.Across the street from Strats Drive in.
JEWEL Foods stores have always been a major staple around here,but when Burney Bros. bakery left them,we kinda did too.
Topps is still SYMMS today today,near the corner of North Ave. & Westmore Ave.I bought my first Johnny Lightning cars there,back in 69.Across the street from SYMMS is where BIG R used to be.It's Jungle World today,but I spent most of my childhhod life in BIG R.I bought model kits & Matchbox/HotWheel cars for years there,and can still see the layout of the store in my head.For 10 years,every time we went to BIG R,our parents placed us 3 kids in the Photo booth near the front door that took a strip of pics for 50 cents,to document how we'd grown.I just recently got those 10 picture strips from my Mom,who found them in a shoebox.All in B&W.
Dick Portillo started his very first Hotdog stand in BIG R's parking lot on North Ave. & Westmore,back in 1963.I remember it looking like a Photomat store.
All those and E.J. Korvettes are so dear to my heart for so many reasons back then..

Very cool. The bottom pic is Clarks Trading Post in Lincoln NH and is still there. We were up there last week and inside the gas station to the far left in the pic is a 57 Nomad. The gas station owner has 3 or 4 57 Chevys. There was also a 68 Camaro out front being worked on. [ QUOTE ]

That Long Island shot/Carvel is Wantagh Avenue, Wantagh NY "Gateway to Jones Beach', spent 35 fun years there and hit that Carvel many times.! We had one Carvel at the north end of town and one at the south end. I would stop there sometimes before heading a couple miles north to do some street racing on Hempstead Tpke, fun days for sure

Christmas 1969. I finally got my slot car set, an Aurora Model Motoring "Golden Gate Bridge" set, and it came with the LeMans Alfa Romeo in blue and the McLaren in green. I went down to my buddy's house for a few hours after breakfast and when I got home my dad had already fully assembled the track and mounted it on a plywood sheet with 12-inch legs so it was up off the floor. He and my sisters were racing the cars and having a great time. Hours of great fun with pop and my sisters and buddies followed over the next few years. Finally sold it, intact and still mounted to the plywood table, to a co-worker in 1985. I kept the 30-ish Model Motoring and A/FX cars though and I still have them. I see the new 1/32 stuff in the hobby shops today and it's all I can do not to drop the bucks on a new setup.
Great time capsule still.
I had nearly the exact same set up..

Do IT! Get a 1/32 scale setup. I had AFX as a kid and picked up a Scalextric set a couple of years ago and the kids and I have a blast with it. Still have an AFX setup that I need to get up and running again.

My dad had built a couple 4' x 8' tables out of plywood, and we had an HO Scale train layout (no scenery) and an HO Scale slot car track on the same L-shaped layout. The greatest part was that we had the HO scale train crossing, which allowed the HO cars to cross. We had a little trip switch to make the scale railroad crossing lights flash. We had hours of fun, as my brothers used to race each other on the car layout, using Tyco and AFX cars, and I would control the ol' Burlington Northern, towing about 6 rail cars.
Yep, I thought I was in control driving that train. Big Chief Engineer. I'd slow way down as it passed the crossing, my brothers waiting impatiently with their 2 HO cars until the caboose finally crossed....then they resumed full throttle and their race for a few laps until my train came around again....
The fun ended when they realized a Tyco Pro brass chassis McLaren M20, and a similar Chaparral 2J, traveling at high speeds, could knock over an entire HO train at that crossing. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I see the new 1/32 stuff in the hobby shops today and it's all I can do not to drop the bucks on a new setup.

Do IT! Get a 1/32 scale setup. I had AFX as a kid and picked up a Scalextric set a couple of years ago and the kids and I have a blast with it. Still have an AFX setup that I need to get up and running again.

http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/scholar.gifI will echo DO IT !!! Life is SHORT !! Get that AFX track or Trains or drum set!! My wife had trains when she was a kid and she always yacked about them. So I went out and picked up four lionel sets and laid them out on a folding 4x8 platform. I used to break them out every year for Christmas, haven't seen them in a few years but know with Grandkids they will probably come out again this year! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

My guess is that may be Woodstock ? -- there was a Church down the road from me in Shrub Oak (Westchester County) NY that raffled off a yellow superbird -- about 2 hours south of Woodstock -- Could it be the same Bird ???

anyone know where this Chrysler dealer was? I had an identical 69 RR like it in 77-80 or so in high school. It was very different, never seen another like it except this pic. Rally green, white vinyl top/interior, black hood stripes and white side stripe and rally wheels. HAS to be the same car..

That's a very cool photo of the Chrysler dealer! With the palm trees in the background, I can tell you that dealership wasn't in Chicago. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif
Strange how they parked that row of cars in the foreground of the picture. They go against the diagonal lines on the pavement! You would think that if they set these cars up for the photo, they would have replaced that 6th car down with something a little nicer (is that a Mercury or Ford, I can't tell). I do see a Fairlane in the background on the other side.
Maybe Diego can add to this, but could that Road Runner in the background have a painted top?
Thanks for posting!

I would say you have 51 possibilities,but judging from the Palm trees just to the right of the RR,you could rule out most Northern States.

I see what looks like a green Torino Cobra in this picture, and on the right, appears to be maybe a Pontiac T-37?

Good eye, but I’m not sure which car this was -
Dave Mc Donald driving one of the two Ford Thompsons crashed into the inside wall on the second lap
sending a huge black plume of smoke into the air, Sachs hit the Thompson and exploded burning both drivers to death.
Eddie Sachs drove the only Ford Hallibrand in the race

Sure is. That's one of about 600 57 Pontiac Bonnevilles made, all of them convertibles, all of them with Fuel Injection. As for the RHD Corvette, I bet the negative got flipped. It's hard to see all of the other cars and the street signs but I'll bet that's what happened.....

I ran the photo of the Corvette through a photo editor and flipped the picture. Yep, the negative was flipped, and it's not a RHD model.
Once I flipped the picture, you can easily read the "ONE WAY" street sign, the 427 emblem on the hood, and see a few of the other steering wheels in some of the other cars all on the left side. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif

the Cities Service sign in these two pictures...could that be the precursor sign to the present day Citgo sign that you see above the "Green Monster" at Fenway Park????? There are lots of pictures out there of the current Citgo sign (which, for those who have never seen it, is a totally different logo than the Cities Service sign in these pics) but have had a hard time finding any of the older Cities Service sign.
I can't see any of Fenway Park in either of these pics, but in the first one the sign on the bank building has "Boston" on it, so can i at least assume that these pics were taken in Boston?
Also, there is a "Calso" (Standard Oil of California, aka Chevron) sign on one of the other buildings. i have seen pics from inside Fenway Park that show a Chevron sign, and others that show a Gulf Oil sign aboce the Green Monster.
