There has been a car under a car cover in the home across the laneway all winter. The view to the yard is blocked from ground level but it can be seen from my second and third floors.

Today, I saw this….

….and I’m wondering if I should be making friends. ?

I’m not sure what it is and this picture is kind of bad but, it appears to be in mint condition.

Anyone know what this beauty might be? Olds? Chevy?

I wanna say it's a very late (1969 when headrests were mandated) to mid 70's Chrysler product....
I think they were the only full size with the full width tail lights.....

I don't lie about how stupid I am, so... What's a laneway?
An alley....I think...
Them's peoples up there in that furrin country Canada have weird names for our regular stuff .....
Yep, it’s referred to as alley or laneway here. It might depend on where you live (east, west, prairies, Maritimes, etc.) but I’ve lived all over the darn place so I get to pick and choose and confuse half the people half the time - mostly confuse myself. ?

I’ve been waiting for him to go out of town so I can host a party.

So Richard, I got as close as I could and peered through the gate - yup, totally stalking the car as Dave suggested. ?

It appears to be a Buick Electra.

Please make sure that car gets covered before any more precip!
Well, they’re drinkin’ on the back porch, so no chance of that. ?
