This photo sure reminds me of a hi-perf dealer I remember stopping at a few times as a budding hotrodder in the late 60's. It was on inner S.E. Powell blvd. in Portland.
It was called Northwest Superstock, do you remember it?

 

Ak Miller at Pikes Peak Hill Climb???

 

Balboa Blvd. penensula looking at the Pavilion. Our sons wedding reception was held there. Fun Zone was just to the left and one more block up was the ferry boat to Balboa Island.

 

The photo is Glendale, CA.

 

I like the headlights!

 

Every time I see this picture, my mind automatically puts it into motion.

 

Requisitioned US-cars in Wehrmacht service:
