Rickie Williams comments on Historic Taylor Co KY photo Main ST Rickie Williams sends a wealth of automotive detail, including the big reason why we paid a bit more for a Pontiac than a Chevrolet - an 'all we like sheep' instinct so skillfully exploited by marketing gurus of the day. We got more chrome. And he adds a commentary on a luxury item of the day - an electric water heater. Larry Smith and CM would also like to know the dealerships these autos likely came from. About: Comments re photo 59317 Historic Taylor Co KY photo Main Street a Larry Smith favorite photo By Rickie Williams The car in front is a 1949 Pontiac Streamliner. If it had been a Chevrolet, its name would have been Fleetline. Pontiacs were noted for having a lot more chrome trim than Chevrolets back then. The back car that has as Larry Smith mentioned the "wrap around" windows is a 1956 Plymouth Belvedere. Pontiac and Plymouth are now both gone... the last year of production being 2010 and 2001 respectively. I couldn't help but notice what I believe is a hot water heater in the leftmost store window. Something we take for granted today was a luxury item then. --Rickie Williams This story was posted on 2015-03-18 06:29:01
