Off today - errands included the hardware store and Fairway. First - the little red Toyota is back!
And that’s MISTER Appliance to you!
This is a nice late-80s S-Class (all hail KRUG!):
Sort-of unmolested Integra:
I always thought I’d end up in one of these one day ...
Vibe, and the most clearly-labeled CHARGER I’ve ever seen:
And a shoutout to Beacon Paint & Hardware where I visited earlier today - I shop there because I want mom-and-pop businesses in the city to survive and thrive. Light bulbs, cleaning products, whatever - even if it’s a bit more expensive, that’s where I spend my money.

I can leave a note on it for you ... and, it’s an automatic, which must have been rare in its day. You would know better - guessing that a ‘78, ‘79?

B pillar insert on the one here is silver, that one is black. Hard to believe there are TWO of them in the 5 boroughs.

Auto on a 20R? Oof, I guess it’s all you need in the city.
Likely a 77 or 78. 79 was the start of my longbed’s body style. 74-76 looks like that red one except a body-colored grille.

That truck was probably bought with something other than this city in mind ...

The one you pictured is the Stout from the 60s, it was sold in North America for a few years in the mid-60s, but in Europe and Japan up to the 80s, with a few redesigns. It came before the Hilux, and is slightly larger.
