This installment of the $5,000 Challenge features a few driver-quality selections that, if preserved or restored, ...Read More | San Francisco, 1952 Posted by Daniel Strohl - Date: 1952 Location: Sacramento Street and Mason Street, San Francisco, California Source: Shorpy What do you see here?...Read More | | | THIS DAY IN AUTOMOTIVE HISTORY | 9/27/1967: | "My Mother, The Car" exported to France. |
