Some more classic pictures

I truly hope everyone enjoys these photos as much as I do ! I stand in awe when looking at them . I try to stay on the Mopar theme but I wonder a bit when I find a set of cool old pictures. My overall direction is to give us a bit of a walk back in time when things were made by hand and not so disposable. A snap-shot of Americana. Go ahead and post any of your photos here for all to enjoy.

I recognized it as soon as I saw it. It still stands in Sierra Madre, CA which is my wife's hometown and former hometown of our own @saforwardlook, aka Steve. Sierra Madre is a quaint little town nestled in the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains between Pasadena and Arcadia. Very much a small town USA.

As a bit of a history buff, I'm enjoying taking part in this thread. I start out by looking for vintage automotive and transportation related pics but often get sidetracked by great general historic photography.
