The Fremont neighborhood in Seattle has long since ceased to be affordable for ordinary human beings, but it retains some of its quirky character in the form of a lot of old cars and trucks.
This 1949 Ford F-1 has been nicely restored. That's a pretty nice chrome grill for a working pickup from this era.
The mid-80s Chevy El Camino, still a fairly common sight on the west coast.
This 1976 Datsun 280Z was the first car in the series with fuel-injection. It was way ahead of the dinosaurs Detroit was offering at the time.
1987 Dodge Ram. Far less common that the old Ford and Chevy trucks you see on every block here.
1980 Toyota Celica. One of the few cars from that era that is hard to kill.
And finally, right in front of the Ford F-1, quite a contrast: A 1990 Mercedes 560 SEC. This car cost around $85,000 new. That would be over $200,000 in 2024 dollars.
