Vintage shots from days gone by!

Without even looking, I would have to say yes, because that was way too cute for these parts.

And I agree (sigh).

Most of you guys won't notice that there is a car in this pic but for the few that do whatever happened to these old Renaults? You used to see a lot of them running around in the 60's. I always thought they were cool little cars. The Gordini was the best model. (posted by SWI66) thanks.

Yup, in front of the Bank of Nova Scotia, Poodle Dog Cafe up the street a bit.

 

C'mon, Dad....what are my friends gonna say when we pull up in front of the school in a RAMBLER??

 

From Fred Hartling: "A very good friend of my brother's, Tommy Fitzpatrick, who lived in New Jersey and hung out at the bar and grill between 191st and 192nd street on St. Nicholas. One evening, on a dare and a bet, he went home back to New Jersey, stole a plane from Teterboro Airport, flew it over Washington Heights and landed it on St. Nicholas Avenue at about 3 a.m. in the morning. He parked it on 191st Street in front of the opening of the subway. The following day they came and dismantled it and drove it back to the airport. How he landed it through automobiles on both sides of the street was a miracle. He came over snake hill."
