Vincennes 35 chevy

What are the odds the car is a 1935 Chevrolet Master 5 window coupe they are a rare car today because the body was wrapped around a wood frame and the wood rotted away and the car was junked. Here's mine, made into a hotrod.

Vincennes, Indiana

So, why not change the capture Dave? The link proves it is Indiana, isn't it?

That's Vincennes, INDIANA

The Old Cathedral was recently restored (at great expense) and looks fabulous!

My wife and I would have been married in that church had it not been getting its previous painting in January of 1971.
