I lived in Bethel Park from 1972-84, and rode the 36-Drake, and sometimes
the 35-Library, but never saw a "Bethel Park" ad car in that period.

I think there had to have been a 1700 ad car sometime, but a check of my
photo collection tonight didn't find any such paint jobs.  There was a
Burger King 1700 inthe mid-70s, but it was basically a PAT red/white band
car with Burger King logos and words painted on it.

For the English majors: I put commas and periods outside my quotation
marks when I think it makes more sense or makes the sentence easier
to read (adapted from Dr. Ed Friedlander, <www.pathguy.com>)
