Cool pics! Makes me sick as to all the cool old cars that have been crushed over the decades!!!! Sick!
I'm pretty sure 98% of those cars are dead too. Whats up with the paint?pretty sure the 2 men in the car are dead!
No, not sure where it isis that a Mass. town? Reminds me of me tooling down the street in my'63 Valiant in a certain midwest city in '70...
Cars back then got covered in crud being shipped on open railcars and trucked long distances. They arrived at dealerships looking like hell. It’s why dealers back then had large numbers of wash and prep crews to clean them up before putting them on the lot.I'm pretty sure 98% of those cars are dead too. Whats up with the paint?
I learn a lot diving deep into those old images to colorize them. This is what I learned about this one...

That was at O.R. Mitchell Chrysler-Plymouth-Dodge on Broadway downtown SA. All the car dealers were on Broadway back then. Then slowly they moved out to the loops and later on the interstate highways.I can't think of another group that would appreciate this picture more than this one...found this in a Hemmings article
