Description:

Super 8 footage from 30 years ago put on VHS about 15 years ago. Shots are on Kissena Blvd and later, at Main and Franklin. Fishbowls and thier Flxible cousins, nothing else. This was it in NYC from mid 1970s to 1980. Lots of paint schemes, non or broken A/C, graffitti, wide open windows, drivers that could really move. The only unlimited rides were for employees and school kids with passes. But I always had a penny next to my token, and would decide at the last second to drop the penny if either the driver was distracted or the trays was already loaded with coins.
