Default Calling all Philadelphians!

I was talking to a few guys at work the other day about Front St. One guy remembers a car with Emerald City painted on the trunk lid. Does anyone have a picture of this car, or remember it? I was interested in seeing what it was and what it looked like.

Thanks,

Nova Jed

I have pictures of the car and knew the owner but I cant put up the pics unless I was to speak to the family. They might want to keep them private.

It was a green 69 Camaro. The owner later died in his 34 Ford street rod coming home from a cruise night in Feasterville. The car was quite famous around here

With or Witout !!! is the question , You would have to be there to understand !!! A buddy of mine had a shop right there as well . You should experience backing a car trailer into one of those shops in those narrow streets !!!!!

If my memory serves me right, his name was Tony and he was a rather large man. I was told that he had a lot of money in that car, back in the day. Like I said before, I was just intrested in seeing what it looked like. Heard it was really cool!
