This pic was posted about a month ago by someone else - I queried whether this is the 'Paul Revere Church' in Boston - didn't get any response. Still wonderin'
Cheers.

 

If you mean Old North Church from the Midnight ride poem, yes it is. the freedom trail marker on the fence at the left is a pretty good clue.

 

Yep....here is another (earlier) vintage shot of it.....

 

Thanks plym_46. My wife and I visited there 5 yrs ago and it just looked like I thought I remembered it so I thought I'd ask the knowledgeable folks here.
I'm glad I recognized it. Cheers.

 

Why not, think trailer towing package.

 

That's bad information. The 396 was only available in El Camino and Super Sport Chevelles in 67. The big block was not available in the garden variety Chevelle sedans or station wagons.

 

Looks like it was available in 67 "Caprice" wagons

We know that. We are talking about the intermediate Chevelle line. Thanks, John Brown, for confirming what I thought about this.

 

Nope - it's a C-47 transport. B-17s didn't have openings like these for the stabilizers.

 

Ok, thanks for the correction I should have kept quiet rather than post up incorrect information!

Doc.

 

Yes, that is the Old North Church from Hull Street. Copp's Hill Burying Ground to the left, the second oldest cemetery in Boston, dates back to 1659. The Freedom Trail was created in 1951.

 

Yes it is
