    I don't know how "vintage" this photo is, but it looks pretty much as I remember it when I saw it about 30 years ago.

    Well, I'm seeing computerized point-of-sale stations and flat screen TV's, so I'd say it's probably pretty recent.

    Cool 'wagon' though.........

    Early 50's Dodge 1/2 ton panel truck with the roof from a 50's Nash Rambler wagon grafted on top.

    You were supposed to look beyond the ugliness and see the beautiful station wagons in the background.

    I know, but it is hard to do when your retinas have been seared.

    From The Old Motor:

    Reader John Burns sent in this photo of a group of Troopers along with a Connecticut State Police Ford Station Wagon modeling one of the roof-mounted speedometers that were popular at the time. The picture was taken on one of the three of the Interstates in the state circa 1959. Can anyone tell us which of the highways this is (I-95, I-91 or I-84), or tell us about the unique roof-mounted speedometer as seen on the Ford?
