Isn't that the old Customs House in Charleston SC?

If you look at the base of the building you will see round openings. Back in the day when it was built back in the mid to late 1700's that lower area was used as a dungeon and prisoners where shackled to the wall. The openings had no windows just bars and when the Cooper and Ashley rivers crested too much the water would flood the dungeon and poor souls that were residing there for what ever reason would be getting very wet. Thank God there was no ACLU back then https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/smile.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/smile.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/smile.gif

When it was built it was within a 100 yards of the marsh/beach area. If you go there today you will see that they have infilled the area quite a bit since then and water is now 4 or 5 blocks away with more than a few buildings placed between the old Customs House and the shore. There's a pretty cool pier too and a commons type area where a lot of people hang out. To the rigt of the picture and just down the street is the town houses known as Rainbow Row.....another one of Charleston's calling cards.

this is actually the Charleston City Hall, on Broad St.
I don't know who was in the basement but they were probably getting wet also as this is just a few blocks inland. It was closed a few months ago, under renovation.

here is the customs house now, with the famous basement, right on Bay St.

Actually Chris it's the Old Exchange and Provost Dungeon. At the time it was built it served as an Exchange/Customs House as well as the Provost Dungeon.

Here's a link.

Been spending a lot of summers in that neck of the woods since '81. Charleston, IMHO, is one of the most coolest towns I have ever been to.

Re: Old Street Scenes
 
A little boy was the sole survivor from the DC-8. Those were the days when the new jets would descend for landing at high speeds below 10,000 feet (speed limit below 10 now is 250 knots) and I think the DC-8 ran over the top of the Constellation, also approaching Idlewild (now Kennedy) for landing.

That must have been the conversion lot for the 1969 Charger Daytonas. Look at the third car in the center and you'll see the flush rear window has been added with its accompanying bad body work but the regular front sheetmetal is still intact and no wing is installed yet.

No. The 500s were built much earlier than the Daytonas so they wouldn't be at the conversion plant at that later date. Also, look at the grills, it has the standard Charger nose, not the swapped-in Coronet grill.

I worked at a lot of dealers, doing striping and other add-ons for new cars. This dealer was Carter Pontiac Buick in Burnaby, BC, my biggest customer. I was there almost daily. I did GM warranty decal replacement for the Trans Am hood birds and other large decals that body shops were afraid of.
I did that for a lot of the GM dealers in the Vancouver area in those years. Did a lot of the anniversary Corvettes too, as none of them ever came from GM straight.

I bought a brand spankin' new 1975 Pontiac Astre and drove it all through college. I got 113,000 miles out of it before I traded it on another new car. The engine had a 60,000 mile warranty under which I had the valve seals replaced at 59,100 miles at no charge. Other than that, I had no mechanical issues whatsoever. I guess I was one of the lucky ones!

I bought a brandy new Astre in the Fall of 1976.Goldenrod Yellow I believe the color was,That was a stone reliable car.I still have the window sticker for it.I traded for a new Sunbird in 1980(economy was the thing).Now I'm thinking that having it back and swapping in a small block would be the ticket!!......BILLJ
