Thanks for the memories Rob.

For those who like to test their old car knowledge, here's another one.

I like the Corvette, but not those colors. Starting with the red car next to the Corvette is a Chevy, Ford, Oldsmobile, A Dodge (I think) and a Plymouth. The red car with the white top in the front of the photo is a Chevy, and the fin to it's left belongs (I think) to a Plymouth. The fin on the other side of the Chevy belongs to another Chevy.

There is a Corvair all the way in the back and I think a Fore with a brown Fender. Is that a 1920 Chevy under the OK sign?

This looks like a Chevy dealer's used car lot. I liked the picture of Coney Island better.

Too many cars to guess at, but I haven't seen a sign for Rexall Drugs in years.

Is the very first parked car on the right a Hudson?

I thought it ironic on 60 minutes last night they showed a recent photo of Nathan's, standing all alone by it self.

I believe it is either a '49 or '50 Lincoln.

Many of the stores and amusements near Nathan's were demolished to make room for MCU Stadium the home of the Brooklyn Cyclones Baseball Club. It's a very nice minor league ballpark. It looks out over the Atlantic Ocean

Ding. Ding. I am impressed. 1950 Lincoln Cosmopolitan trunk lid and tail lights. But I don't see the rear window slats and perhaps the roof has been lowered; I think it has been customized, given the paint job. Heck, maybe it's a Hudson lead sled with Lincoln parts. Really hard to tell.

I believe what is shown in the photo is an original Lincoln paint scheme.
