I was 18 years old then, and did hang out in that area a bit. Still, the cars look so old compared to what I'm used to now.

People seemed to really like driving old cars back in the day, huh? Saw some black and white photos and those guys were driving, like, crazy old cars that you rarely ever see today. If that trend keeps up, then maybe some day a few decades from now we'll even be driving the cars of the future! Really makes you think...

I remember a guy who had an old Cadillac that had a VW beetle kind of morfed on to the back of it. I even remember his license plate. JMAN. Ha!

The orange car looks like a Yugo to me but the tail-lights don't seem to match. Been so long since I've seen one in person.

My first thought was an old Datsun. Remember those? I'll see if I can find a pic for comparison online.

That's more likely or an old Civic hatchback (though again I think the tail-lights are wrong for that).

Definitely the 79 fiesta. I found on on google that's a perfect match, right down to the color.

Haha yup, third picture was the orange one.

And (old) people say cars today all look alike.

From right to left you have a Fiesta, Subaru, Datsun 210 (maybe), Chevette, Cadillac, and a big Ford Wagon the best I can tell.
