    1. Of all the cars in the photo I am most interested in the stock looking ’68 Camaro parked at the corner with the for sale sign. That and the Triumph GT-6.

    2. Feels like a snapshot From a movie set LA in 1980 had that Effortless cool you just can It fake.

    3. Wait a minute I don’t see Monica Bellucci or Lynda Carter in that photo. Reported to mods. /s

    4. I assume you found this picture in an archive of Hot Rod Magazine?

      And 94.7 KMET … the soundtrack of my youth!

    6. I remember gas wars in Torrance- in 67-68. All four corners of the intersection were gas stations and they would lower their prices against each other to attract customers. When giving away glasses and towels wasn’t enough!

      Street rods and probably Mickey Thompson drag slicks on the back. Got caught in a rainstorm going down a steep winding mountain road on those tires back in the day. Unintentional drifting before it was popular
