Oh the memories of walking through that parking lot after missing the tram, remembering where you parked and the lines to get out at night. - Diznimom211.8 #1452 7-19-12 3:20PMLike(2) Reply
That is the best old picture I've seen. Old classic cars plus old classic disney what more could you ask for. - DarksidePooh220.4 #1348 7-19-12 3:26PMLike(1) Reply
*sigh* this looks beautiful, wish i could go back in time and experience it at that time - Jo_ohanna383.7 #349 7-19-12 4:38PMLike(1) Reply
LOVE it. This makes me nostalgic for the old parking and entrance. I do miss being able to park right in front of the gates...but I wouldn't trade the new stuff for it. - JinglePoe289.9 #669 7-17-12 8:28PMLike Reply
It's a fair trade - ScooterMike 1959.8 #35 7-17-12 8:39PM
Can't wait to finish this time machine I've been working on. - RadioMaverick 526.9 #218 7-17-12 8:42PM
Now those are real cars. Never get tired of seeing pics like this. Thanks scooter. - BeagleBoy12167.3 #2045 7-17-12 8:52PMLike Reply

Evergone must have been rich in the 50's... they all had Classic cars... 😜 - BambooMike121.6 #2696 7-19-12 2:32PMLike Reply
What an awesome photo! Thanks for sharing! =) - MrsHatbox207.5 #1524 7-19-12 2:35PMLike Reply
My condolences for your Husbands unfortunate accident... 😜 - BambooMike 121.6 #2696 7-19-12 2:44PM
What happened?? - PrinceTeaJack 786.0 #118 7-19-12 2:51PM
From what I've heard Mr. Hatbox worked in the Haunted Masion when it first opened, but was relieved of his position soon after due to technical issues. I guess he was "a head" of his time... It's my attempt at a Hatbox ghost joke... 😔 - BambooMike 121.6 #2696 7-19-12 3:06PM
How awsome would it be to park that close still? Oh well times change. The walk is totally worth it! - Disneymomab15.1 #5651 7-19-12 2:45PMLike Reply
Woooooow! I don't think I ever saw this parking (or if I did I don't remember)... That is an awesome photo! I wish I could park that close, but I'm very grateful for DCA - SPandEvLover776.2 #123 7-19-12 3:06PMLike Reply
I remember having the privilege of being a premium passholder and parking at the front in preferred parking. Those were the days! - Plutopia211.1 #1469 7-19-12 4:37PMLike Reply
I LOVE this pic! Thank you for sharing Scooter Mike! I just adore classic cars! If gas wasn't so darn expensive I'd be driving one as my everyday driver! - Duchess_SMK3254.1 #11 7-19-12 4:41PMLike Reply
I used to drive classic cars regularly. Now I have my daughter and drive a modern car. - ScooterMike 1959.8 #35 7-19-12 4:45PM
Isn't it weird that they didn't have seatbelts?! Lol we have a chevy biscayne sitting in our driveway right now but hardly drive it because of the kids. - Duchess_SMK 3254.1 #11 7-19-12 5:29PM
I put seatbelts in my 1959 Edsel when I had the interior redone. My other classics don't have them. They were not required until 1968. Old cars are grandfathered. - ScooterMike 1959.8 #35 7-19-12 5:52PM
Cool picture! Didn't CM park to the right of the entrance? - snappy272.6 #800 7-19-12 5:13PMLike Reply
