30DodgePanel Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 (edited) I know it's hard not to look at the cars, but did you guys see the man in the photo whos working on pulling parts? I've seen this photo many times over the years and never even noticed him before. Here's a clearer version of the photo. I'm sure you'll see him if you look close enough. There may be others pulling parts... I've never checked Another thing that surprises me about the photo is the shape of most of the vehicles. It's odd so many seem to have little damage ended up there. Edited January 24 by 30DodgePanel (see edit history) 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hook Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 As you can see the only thing near the Plymouth sign is a couple of opened hoods. The guy working on the car is shown in the line of the Graham sign. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And 3, the rear window is a slightly different shape, it' longer. Edited February 7 by hook left out (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
