Re: Our Trucks Doing What They Did - Vintage Photo Thread



This is a neat one in that it's my home town! If there was a Buick in that photo I may be in it! LOL This is at the "Five corners" in the Irvington district of Fremont. My mom grew up in Irvington, when it was a town before Fremont joined a few of these towns in 1956. That building straight ahead with the opening on the corner is an auto repair shop that my uncle Joe worked at. There is not a Burger King there, but that's a good part of my family's history now too, it is where my wife's first job was.

The second picture is of my Uncle Art and his to be wife in a parade right there on the street where that AD is a number of years before. The last one is my mom working at her first job just to the right of where this photo was taken only a few hundred feet away. And the last one with my mom holding my sister with the 36 Ford was taken only a few hundred yards from this photo at five corners.
Yeah, I have a LOT of photos from Irvington.
