Maybe she was screaming at the car she's looking at, as it looks like it ran into the Pontiac he's crying on.

First pic I posted before,my uncle in his 63 Stingray in 1968. Looks to be the Homecoming parade. He stopped by yesterday to take my mom for a B'day ride,she turned 75. The Vette is unrestored and looks just like it did in 1968. He looks a bit older,lol.

Note the build sheet taped to each assembly and the paint coverage (or lack thereof).

That would be '67 since it's mono leaf, shocks not staggered?

Also note the wood blocks which compose the flooring.

Those were (I suspect) done that way so that the lines could be reconfigured without tearing up a bunch of concrete, and so there would be a slight bit of cushion if you dropped a tool or a die or a machine.

But - they were nasty. They held any oil or fluid that was spilled on them, making them slippery, and they made the surrounding area dark. Assembly plants now usually have cement flooring and betting lighting making things a bit more pleasant.

I used to take my shoes off at the end of my shift and set them in the back of the truck. No way would you ever wear them into the house after being at work.
