Down on the Street

On Dasher, on Dancer, on COMET...

With these sweet taillights to alight a December sky, this old compact "snow white" Merc sure looks like it could have been Santa's sleigh in the mid-60s.

By the looks of it, it may also have spent some time in salt country.

But hey, it's still has plenty more character than the Dodge 600 (40 better than a Mercedes 560 SEL?) parked next to it. I doubt that thing will still be on the roads when it's well into its 40s.
