Vintage shots from days gone by!

These were given to me when we bought our car... They are ~ 1968 in California.

 

Here's a few from Scollay Square in Boston.

I like these views for the vintage iron.

Both regulars and new folk on the block are posting TREMENDOUS stuff!

Gary, thanks for this shot of Boris, near the end of his LONG career. If I recall, he passed away in 1969. I think if anyone searches the thread, they can see more pix from the actual "Route 66" episode. Pretty sure it was called "Lizard's Leg and Owlet's Wing."
