St. Regis were all tritone. In my opinion it's a single tone colored Newport like mine is. Happy Motoring! Dieter | ||

Expert Posts: 1530 Location: ZH, Switzerland | Windsor59 - 2012-04-15 8:18 PM It look like a New Yorker 56 with the ornament at fins. Yep, it's a single tone '56 New Yorker. The New Yorker has a finer grille and eight louvers at the fins. I assume there is rust at the lower end of the doors... What year was this pictures taken? Happy Motoring! Dieter | ||

Exner Expert 19,174 posts. Neil passed away 18 Sep 2015. You will be missed, Neil! Posts: 19146 Location: bishop, ca | In Re: the Los Angeles International Airport's centerpiece icon, its "Theme Building", here's some information on it and a couple photos of its "Encounter Restaurant" : The Theme Building, designed by the futuristic architects William Pereira, Charles Luckman Associates, Welton Becket & Associates and Paul R. Williams, was built in 1961 to serve as the center of the airport, a ticketing spot through which all passengers would pass. But as a result of the manner in which LAX developed — highly decentralized without a single point of orientation, much like the city it serves — that plan never came together. However, the building’s other features, like the observation deck — where people could watch planes take off and land and peer through the mini-telescopes — still attracted visitors. (The deck was closed to the public after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, but airport officials are contemplating a way to make it accessible again to visitors, possibly by appointment.) The building’s modern design and references to air and space travel came to stand for a new Western city on the edge of greatness. “From a historical point of view,” said Paul Danna, president of the Los Angeles chapter of the American Institute of Architects, “the building really symbolized the forward-looking spirit that Los Angeles had in the ’50s and ’60s and hope that Angelenos of that generation held for the future.” In 1997, the Encounter, a totally round restaurant, was opened in the building, with interiors and retro lighting created by Walt Disney designers, and it has remained a trendy drink spot. After the chunk of building fell onto the Encounter in March 2007, the restaurant was closed for eight months, while the Theme Building was dressed for renovation and its flaws were attacked. ...And, yes; that is the World's largest Lava Lamp (at least, in any restaurant) in the center of the place.

Expert Posts: 2308 Location: The Bat Cave, Fairborn, OH | That KABC shot with the 1958 Plymouth Fury in it wouldn't by any chance be a Lawerence Welk publicity shot would it? I seem to remember that there is a shot of Mr. Welk sitting in a 1957 Dodge convertible in front of this TV station; in fact it may be in this collection in an earlier page.

I'm fairly certain it is,but there wasnt any description at all on the site I got the picture from.I dont recall seeing it posted here previously,but it may have been,I dont go through all the pages to check. | ||

Location: Parts Unknown | Below is the photo I referred to before showing the 57 Adventurer with body-colored headlight nacelles. It appears to be a very early shot, although nothing saying those were not repainted after purchase. But doesn't all lit say that ALL 57 DeSotos got P&W Black nacelles ? Ed ?
