Why do exact dates and locations matter so much in our carspotting series? After all, isn’t it enough to just enjoy the old cars and try our hands at identifying them based on scant details and partially revealed forms? Sure, that’s fun, but we can also dig deeper when we have the proper contextual information to see, for example, what the average age of a car on the road was at that time, or whether the types of cars we see in the images correlate with the locale pictured (suburb, inner-city, college campus, etc.). Fortunately, Lou C., of the 1956 Eldorado Biarritz Survivor Roster, provided not only the exact location for today’s carspotting photo (Captree State Park on Long Island), but also the date (September 6, 1954). What do you see here?
