If that's her mother, Mrs. Lincoln, on the left, she is looking very young to me, but I knew her only as a very elderly woman. She babysat me when I was 4 - 5 years old. She had a large stuffed owl in her den, with big, staring eyes, guaranteed not to let a little kid sleep.<br /><br />The houses behind are (I am pretty sure) are R - L the O'Shaunnessy's, the Beckman's, and the Rogers'. The car is in the Beans' driveway. The photo was taken looking Southeast. <br /><br />I hope you are in much better circumstances now. I am sorry that I am "late to the discussion."mkfloodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01173612473289521563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5034998384799920884.post-57715492170878924522013-06-24T18:47:57.103-07:002013-06-24T18:47:57.103-07:00Jana, thanks so much for stopping by and for your ...Jana, thanks so much for stopping by and for your kind words!<br /><br />See?

Yep. And they could be sisters, but I suspect they are mother and daughter, as Far Side Of Fifty suggested. And I suspect that the older woman is saying something like "You..."<br />Maybe cussing out the photographer in a gentile way.

In 1969, they changed the headlights to side by side. In 1965, the light in the fender in front of the wheel was in a chrome backing, which they dispense with in 1966. In 1967 and 1968, the added emphasis to a crease running at the door lock level (you can see it in this photo: http://www.americandreamcars.com/1968coupedeville013011.htm) He and I can't tell if there is a crease on this car or if it's just a blemish in the photo.<br /><br />We are 99% sure this is a 1966... as you can see here:<br />http://www.motortopia.com/cars/1966-cadillac-coupe-deville-15575<br />Intense Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08441598926026727682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5034998384799920884.post-17353698801104225112013-06-19T09:01:56.053-07:002013-06-19T09:01:56.053-07:00Yes, it's time for something lighter.
