    Once you see the Falcon, you can't un-see it. Its a light color car while the Pontiac is a dark color car.

    Amazingly enough those buildings are still there - BMW dealership now and another generic used car lot. Driving through that era of SoCal is always a trip back in time because so much of it has survived even if been re-purposed.

    My first-ever car was purchased from one of the dealers on that row - and it's still in business! In the early summer of 1969, I bought a 1963 Olds F-85 Cutlass coupe from the used lot of Santa Monica Ford.

    GM provides Sioux City auto show with Motorama Show cars.

    These images date to 1955 and may have been shot by a “Sioux City Journal” photographer for press coverage of the local Auto Show. The vehicles in the foreground of the second photo contain one GM-provided Cadillac concept car in the grouping of cars on display by C. J. Murray Cadillac.
