I had been hanging out at the folk clubs in Greenwich Village many years before this was taken. In the photograph I was fresh in from Santa Cruz, CA, and had my "Psychedelic" '47 Ambulance parked on MacDougal Street about in front of the long gone but not forgotten Gaslight Cafe. Note the upper cockpit and windscreens where you could sit high (no pun) and watch the world go by. The rotating radar antenna is fully operational. Bought at a city auction in Santa Cruz. I was three miles away from Ken Kesey's place in Soquel -- and now you know where the color scheme came from. View full size.
