Vintage shots from days gone by!

That's what I was thinking. Safe sex 50s style.

What is the black blob in front of the '59?

Yes! That's because cars really rusted out that fast.

Typically, 3 years up here in Michigan - you already had rust issues.

 

Burlington Vermont, 1965.

Having a chuckle, because "somebody" blacked out the v-dub bus.

But it is an eclectic mix of vehicles, isn't it? Can just make out what looks like an old flivver at mid-left.

 

Sorry, Tommy, but I don't know where it was taken.

 

Another shot of v-dub bus in Burlington c.1965. Maybe it was a Sony spy vehicle. You never know - just never know... hah!

 

Burlington Vermont again. All domestic vehicles this time. They wouldn't dare park a furriner car in front of the two most Iconic stores in USA - Sears & Woolworths!

 

Essex Vermont, 1965.
Man, loved those gas prices...

 

Why do you get to wear the cool campaign hat and I have to wear this dumb old cap?

 

I didn't love them so much back then, when they went above 25 cents a gallon!

 

is that chick smoking a cigarette?

 

Probably what the guy behind her is thinking!

 

Yes. She's hoping to go back to the future as well.

 

Not to be picky, but flivvers were Model T Fords. That is a Model A.

 

Where is Monte Walsh

 

The Munsters Britain ?

Back when I was pumping gas we never put our cigarette out for anything..... just sayin. Yes I quit altogether over 50 years ago, otherwise that and the asbestos dust would have done me in long ago.
