    Just past the two-toned '56 Chevy I make out a pair of '52-'54 Hudsons. One was a rare sight, two together
    really rare.

    In front of the white '55 Chevy sedan on the left hand side is a '57 Studebaker. It is one of two cars later than '56 that I saw. I will leave the other one (and any I may have missed) for someone else.

    What's by the 'One Way' sign behind the Hornet? Seville?

    I thought that was the nova.

    Those seem to be dwindling a bit, many I spot locally don't appear to be on the road.

    They were rare here. I don't think I've ever seen the Sonnet V4 (Ford Taunus power)

    Yup they just retired the last ones in they NYC fleet. Those things were lousy cabs with very little back seat room behind the partition. Great for luggage though

    Hermosa Beach, probably not before 1985 from what I can tell, zooms well:




  • stickguystickguy Member Posts: 53,827

    Silver sunbird up front. And silver 124 spider FIAT far back. And a knight rider for its under the light.

    And a pair of 1st gen Supra’s (though the red one could be a celica, my eyes aren’t that good!)

    Are you kidding? It was the 80's - everyone (men and women) had coiffed hairstyles that they wouldn't want mussed up by exposing it to the wind.

    There's a late model Porsche Targa at far middle right with its roof panel off, along with the aforementioned Fiat Spider. Motorcycle also counts.

    The black Celica turning is a Supra, I think the burgundy one beside it is just a Celica. There's another of that gen driving away at upper right, in front of a Pulsar, with first gen Celica behind that. No doubt the Celica was a popular item.

    I also spot 2x C2 Audi 5000 - one at lower left behind the motorcycle, another at upper right behind an X car notchback sedan. Behind that Audi is what makes me think 1985 - an Olds either C or H body. At left beside a red Beetle looks like a Sentra with flush headlights, which started in 1985.
  • stickguystickguy Member Posts: 53,827

    Didnt even notice the white wedge celica at the light. Must have been quite new.

    Hope the guy riding the motorcycle wearing just a pair of shorts and shoes doesn't have to drop it. He would be one giant ouchie.

    Seattle, probably not before 1977-78 or so by a few cars. Zooms well for its size:



    This stretch of I5 looks very similar today, with the addition of more traffic. Much more traffic. Much much more traffic.
