Car 453 at the French Market after it was dragged out of the shelter and placed in the flea market area, and before it was lifted over the fence into the Mint yard.  There are bars on the doors and bondo patches on the sides of the car, which represent a vain effort to preserve it.  In the background of the second and third pictures, we can see a bit of the flea market activity.  The third picture was taken April 27, 1975, and the last picture in June 1978. — First, second, and fourth photos by author Hampton
