The Automobilist Takes On Some Of Ditmas Park’s Most Recognizable Cars

Nora Whelan -

The Automobilist, who has been taking beautiful photographs of vehicles around Brooklyn since 2010, stopped into our area recently for a look at some local four-wheeled gems.

Included in the week’s roundup were the 1971 baby blue Beetle that can often be spotted around Ditmas Avenue and E 17th Street, a white Fiat 500 from the same year by PS 139, and a 1977 Lincoln Continental Mark V Bill Blass Edition (!!!) on Cortelyou. The entries are all short and sweet, but each contain a nugget of information about the vehicle in question and its connection to the present day.

See if a car you’ve been wondering about made the site (or hey, if one of those pictured is your car)… and do you think any others deserve an entry of their own?
