In response to popularity of the Classic Motorsport Photos thread and the Photos from History thread, I am making a thread solely about old photos of road cars (not race cars). I would prefer if the photos are no newer than 1995, and try to list the date taken and location of the photos if you can find it.

Here are a few examples:

1964, Porsche factory:

1938, Dodge Bus

November 1987, Volkswagen truck load, Charleston, West Virginia



1962, Sacramento Street, San Francisco, California

Suppose I should get some of my dad's old photos...
 
Look: Former President John F. Kennedy inside his presidential limousine, a 1961 Lincoln Continental 4-door Convertible, moments before his assassination on November 22, 1963.
