Memories for some, an eye opener to what was in style for others who never got the chance to know.<br /><br />Funny, while we never had a De Soto, the first family car I remember was mint green, too. Wonder if it was the "in" color for that time period...Jacqi Stevenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03471698670217119444noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5034998384799920884.post-82372626429562273752013-01-23T21:19:20.107-08:002013-01-23T21:19:20.107-08:00Charlie, thanks so much for thinking of me in your...Charlie, thanks so much for thinking of me in your post today!Jacqi Stevenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03471698670217119444noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5034998384799920884.post-70427273356314556142013-01-23T21:18:56.820-08:002013-01-23T21:18:56.820-08:00Stylin' of course! :)Stylin' of course! :)Jacqi Stevenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03471698670217119444noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5034998384799920884.post-17591500659615785642013-01-23T19:20:55.331-08:002013-01-23T19:20:55.331-08:00I could point one out right away..especially the s...I could point one out right away..especially the station wagons.
