Spoke with the lady who owns the flower shop in that strip, she said that she moved there in 1983

right after the fire. The fire started in the dry cleaners either 1981 or 1982.

Awesome pictures. I was going to take a stab at it and say it was late's 70's just by looking at the rigs.

Great Photos, especially that of FDMV's "Old Snokey" (That rig was a classic to which FDMV got allot of use from) & those 2 Classic EFD Rigs: Old Engine 4 (Probably late 1950's ALF) and the late Brockway Rescue 5 (Boy was that a Loud Truck!)
