This is basically what my dream garage looks like.

4th row from left, 5th car from right, appears to be an MG, likely a TF or TD.

Oldie in the crowd appears to be 3rd row from left, 2nd car from right, a 41 Chevy coupe.

Coca-Cola had their reps working weekends back then, too. Guess it went without saying for such a crazy big new account

Yeah. Him. That Prick lived in CA in 1955 too. He drives a Tesla Model S today, but it’s the same guy.

Let’s talk about the cars parked nose out facing the wrong way. Why?

how come they only had like 2 colors? Everyone’s seen the Disney opening day video and they had all the colors inside the park...

Sure, unless there is a car going the correct way then your getaway would be foiled.

Dunno. I’ve heard people insist that backing into a parking space is the proper way to do it. Just seems to me like a good way to get your spot stolen.

But that’s a one way with angled spots. If you back in it would be very hard to get turned around to go the right way.

Figures its a Cadillac, probably the closest to a Tesla you could have at the time (Packard was no longer fashionable, nobody cared about Imperial, and imports were nearly insignificant).

And most of the rides kept brea king down or getting taken offline, hardly anything ran all day. But, nobody even remembers that now, people gladly line up to pay whatever price Disney has decided to jack their tickets up to. And, yet, everyone is so damn sure the 737 Max is going to be an unrecoverable commercial failure.

The rules were looser back then.
