Sure looks familiar. The cars, not the freeways. I grew up with these cars. Thing is, we didn't think of them as being fine vehicles back then. They were just cars. By todays standards they were really crude but they did have character. I used to be able to make out faces in the front and back ends of cars via the layout of the lights, grill, bumpers, etc. Some smiled, some grinned, some leered. Cars today are light years ahead mechanically but for the most part are pretty bland.
Some mighty fine looking vehicles in that video...
ReplyDeleteYou think it was bad then?? I lived there in the 70's and it was bad then, and its the same today.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't mind the traffic if I could wheel around in a Mustang from that era.
ReplyDeleteDidn't notice a single pickup truck.
