Yep - original owners since day one.
They were really interesting people. This is my mom's dad's oldest sister we're talking about, and her husband.
She moved from Texas to California by herself in the 20's. Quite an accomplishment, to my mind. I have the St. Christopher's medal that my uncle gave her on their 25th wedding anniversary in (I think) 1949.
Since before I was born (1963) they were retired and just travelled. They had an old cab-over Dodge van that was converted into a camper, complete with popup roof. (She called it the "doodlebug"). Went to all 49 states in that vehicle, plus a lot of Canada. Travelled to Australia and New Zealand, too.
Too much OT - I'll stop now.
I still want a '67 Imperial...
