I've been following this thread for quite a while. Thanks to everyone who has posted! Figured it was time for me to share one from my family history.

https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/ubbt...e=TheStart.jpg

Here's my Mom's brand new 71 Satellite next to the 64 Fairlane it replaced. That's my Dad's 68 Dodge A-108 in the background. According to the August 1971 date, this would have been right around the time frame I was conceived. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/wink.gif[/img]

Also, found this video recently. Looks to be filmed possibly in the fall of 1959 (based on the load of brand new 1960 Caddies seen). Really a cool period film, produced by the Iowa DOT.

What a great car watchers video!!![img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]


I remember traveling as a kid from NY down to NC every summer and Christmas to visit relatives and that's the way it was - two lane roads, getting stuck on the hills behind the semi's and endless town after town!
A real shot of Americana!


Thanks for posting! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img]

(Those Caddy's appear to be '62's)
