Wow I know this one!.. I used to drive by here twice a day. Of course it was never this nice.. Was real run down and being used as a residence with junk sitting all over the place. I heard it burnt down a couple years ago.. nothing there now but the wall. This spot is on RT 30 (Lincoln Hwy) about 7 miles west of Schellsburg, PA. called Grandview Point. If you look it up on Google Earth there is a photo of it the way I remember seeing it every day. Pretty cool to see what it looked like back in the day. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

Re: Old Street Scenes

You can find a lot of photos on Flickr.com.
Just go to the search function, everyone's uploads, and type in what you're looking for.
For instance, I just typed in '1969' and got over 108,000 results. Cruise through that for a few minutes, and then narrow things down by adding something else in with 1969.
If what you're looking for is 2 words, like Grand Hotel, then you need to put it in like this....
"Grand Hotel"
I have my photo stream on there that includes some cars, but I think you may have seen most of them on here in other threads.

Make sure you have the time to spend though, you can get pretty sidetracked.

Re: Old Street Scenes

Looks like this one had the new Level-Air suspension. I had a red '58 convertible with the level-air
and a 348 automatic back in high school. Got it for free because the bags were shot!
It sat so low if you parked too close to the curb you wouldn't be able to open the door!

Re: Old Street Scenes

Nice shots Dog! Thanks. Dutch Haven is still there on Rt. 30 east of Lancaster, PA. Looks like a shot of the Lancaster, PA railroad station. Neat old station, hopefully it will be restored in the near future. Fulton Bank is also still around and still independent.

Re: Old Street Scenes

Re: Old Street Scenes

Wow. Wow & wow. An amazing look at Americana (and some Canadiana too!) and our love affair with automobile.

I have been surfing the net since 1997. I have a few thousand posts over at Team Chevelle and post on other places on the net too.

This is, hands down, *The Best Post on the Internet.* Ever. Period.

Thank-you.

Re: Old Street Scenes

Dog, the Bossa Nova Camaro is amazing. 1968 right? 6 years after the Carnegie Hall show with João Gilberto, Tom Jobim and others. It seems that Ron Tonkin dealership is still there. I send them an email asking about the car but it won't work, as we now. Anyway, for me who lives in Rio de Janeiro, the home of Bossa Nova, that pictures is a gift. Dog, you started something here... Thanks again!

Re: Old Street Scenes

An old family friend Danny Young (right) and me on the left by his drag car about 1975. He raced at Quaker City in Salem, OH.

Re: Old Street Scenes

Verne, I think Cal Method was a west coast (Washington State) racer if my memory is correct. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif I believe his wife Maryann Method may???still race. They have been around for years.

Re: Old Street Scenes

Cal was out of Kanniwick Washington - ran the wagons for years -
last I heard he was running a Camaro -
but that was more then 5 years ago.

Appears to be a '68 just based on the cars in the dealers lot

Re: Old Street Scenes

Thanks for the history guys https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif
Notice the #61 on the wagon. Maybe he had a soft spot for the old Nomad......... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif
