These are two old and abandoned cars on West Johnson street, between Peace St. and Capital Boulevard. I have no idea of the make and model of either.

The black one in the rear is a DeSoto. The one in the front is a Chevrolet. Gotcha covered!

Pineview Style – After this comment and the one on the classic limousine, I am rapidly learning if I ever have a question about antique/classic cars, you are the one to turn to!

Thanks for writing.
