I'd even take the paint-needy '53 Stude parked across the street.
andre, are you in?!
Truth is, I'd probably have an easier time finding service for one than my Studebaker, which the mere name makes shops say "nuh-uh". I now preface service requests with "It has a Chevy 283", LOL.

It seems the earliest this pic could be was 1961.

What is that small car parked at the curb on this side of the street? The salmon-colored one with the white top. My first thought was something like a Ford Anglia, but I don't think that's right. It's something that looks familiar though, like once I know what it is, I'll be like "D'oh!"
Today I spotted a '90 Mercury Grand Marquis sedan, silver, gasing up while I was. New York plates. Probably a twenty-year old kid gasing it up one row over, one pump back. I knew it was a very late one, as it had the bumpers that didn't wrap around at all; when I asked, he said "'90--Bought it from an old guy who quit driving--two grand". Someone had put a Mustang "5.0" emblem on the front fenders.
I told him I hadn't seen one in years.
He volunteered that he couldn't get home.
I said "Can't get gas?"
He said "The bridges in the city are only open one-way". Said he's staying with a friend at her place in Stow, near Kent where I live.
I guess that's all logical, but I hadn't heard about the bridges in/out of NYC.
When he started it up, it definitely needed exhaust work.
Lot's of good american and french vehicle's to be seen.
I liked the black Cadillac limo the best.
Was never a huge fan of the 90/91. I think for the box years 88/89 was the best mix of the more rounded style and the older dash. Town Cars were revised for 90 with the aero treatment. Vics and Marquis didn't get that until 1992.

On the road today in the old car, spotted a maybe 64-65 Continental convertible, no other oldies other than me and a friend out for an essential drive.

Sheesh, that's some tight parking!
Dodge van in front of the Stude.
and cars those days had nice battering ram bumpers to aid with touch parking.

Much-better looking than the '70 and '71 IMHO.
The other very apparent thing there is how the pontoon fenders on the '69 Chevy made the car look like the wheels were way too far inward. Surprised GM Design did that (or maybe not so surprised if GM bean counters at the time rejected a proposal to widen the track).

I always thought it was weird--in the Ventura and Bonneville for '69, Pontiac offered bucket seats, but no console or floor shift.
'69 Chevy dash--virtually every one I've seen after a few years old, the thin chromed edge above the speedometer either split in two, or if two pieces originally, the gap became much-more noticeable, LOL.

Apparently their AC could be troublesome, too.
What movie is this I feel like I've seen it before but I can't pull up a title.
I didn't realize heating oil could be so volatile, but good to know a stalled fintail can be revived with a rear end tap. That car is somewhat odd, appears to have the badge and rear bumper of a lowline 220, but has fin chrome and tail lights of a higher 220S/SE. Probably no newer than 1962.

The car looks good, but a 91-hp six and those taxicab seats do it no favors.

My uncle had a Fairmont wagon for a short time when I was a kid, Dark blue with matching interior, pretty sure it was cloth, don't know the engine but I suspect a 6 - in the days of 55 I suppose it didn't matter.

Had good AC and got us across Death Valley(105-110 degrees during the day).
As spartan as that interior is, somehow I have a feeling Ford would have found a way to make the Fairmont version even cheaper. That red color might dress it up a bit, though. I imagine in a beige or gray, it would look pretty bleak. One thing I can't remember...was the upper edge of the door trim hard plastic, or bare metal? I would think bare metal would have been banned by this time, but you never know.
