We Baby Boomers got to do the very same thing...ergo, we were cool WAY back, before most of those genY’ers were born! (That's me on the left)

Ronni,
2nd photo down, is that a Studebaker Station wagon?
Thanks, I collect antique cars and that one caught my eye and my question was generated. I will try to investigate...I will let you know what and if I find it.I have no idea. All I cared about was that we could ride in the back lol. My dad was very partial to Fords, I remember that. I know we had several Ford Falcons, but that doesn't look like it says Ford Falcon on the tailgate, does it? It seems like it says S........S........whatever that might mean.
I'll bet it didn't hurt your feelings one little teensy-weensy bit.This really brought memories back of when I was young. My older brother got drafted into the Army during the Korean War. Every weekend we would drive to the Army base where he was stationed.
My older sister would fall asleep on the back seat and the only place for me was in the back window.
Seatbelts being installed in cars became mandatory in 1968, but it didn’t become mandatory in PA to wear them until 1987.
In PA, not wearing a seatbelt is a secondary offense, meaning that the driver will be ticketed for not wearing a seatbelt, as well as each passenger, but only if they were stopped for a first degree offense, such as speeding, running a red light or stop sign, etc.
