Jeez I WISH I could put a hundred down to buy a car.

Great shot of one of those old Auto Club porcelain freeway signs. I was sad as a little kid when they took them all down. Last section of freeway I remember seeing the black signs on was the Harbor right around Orthopaedic Hospital. That was probably around 1967.

And! In 1971, I almost bought a 1963 Studebaker Gran Turismo off a used car lot in Azusa for $100 down! Total sticker price for that absolutely cherry sports car was $700. Ah, the ones that got away!
