    Overton Square in Memphis, 1970. Look in the drive in the background, you can see the brake lights on.

    Small bumper Maverick in the upper left of the photo, taken in Omaha, NE. Attached this because it is absolutely enormous when hotlinking it. Also my 100th post :rolleyes:

    Would be funny if that's my car. Originally from Los Angeles, it was in Chicago in the late 70's and looked identical to that, down to the bumper guards and flaps behind the wheels. It went to Philadelphia in the 80's where it was painted blue, before making it's way to Charlotte in the 90's, where it was painted red.

    Winter: Was there any type of description accompanying this picture? It looks like Market Square. The whole Uptown area was restored not too long after this picture would have been taken. And BTW, It's "Saint John" not "St. John".:yup:

    Thanks for sharing!:Handshake
