The picture was taken on Parkdale Ave. in Hamilton.
Bob Dawson's Dad owned Stoney Creek Dairy, a great place to go.
Now gone and an old age home in it's place.
Bobby Dawson would be around 75 years old now.

Notice the purolater jacket in the picture? Wonder if there is a connection there to Bob Dawson?
Stranger things have surfaced.

No connection to Purolator.
Bobby Dawson had a water delivery truck later on in the Stoney Creek area.
Why don't you ask him where the car is now?
