    There's a Plymouth just like the one in the second picture that's been parked around the neighborhood for years. Sometimes it's on my street. I wonder if this is the same one with different plates (the one I'm thinking of has PA plates).

    It's funny, but I see many of the same cars in use for different film sets around the city. That must be a good gig - driving your collectible car where ever the camera beckons.

    @James The car you're thinking of is a 52 Dodge Meadowbrook. Man, I love that car.

    They have dressed up quite a few windows on E. 9th Street. Just walked by.

    @Anonymous: You are absolutely correct. I'm British and sometimes confuse my American automobiles.

    Is this the car we're talking about?

    I've been wondering what it is.

    @Goggla: That's the one! I have quite few photos of it myself. It used to lurk under the large willow on 9th and C.
