Side-Oilers

So did they produce them in batches of the same colors ,looks like about 7 white ones in a row with I think  # 0025 in the front

Why would the second car in line have the door stripes already applied, but the others don't?

And what part of assembly is being done in that photo?

Don't discount the possibility of a staged photo ether as one of the possibilities. ;)

I think I recognize the white car on the left, was a pervious owner from near Akron Ohio and worked for Goodyear?

Wondered if someone might recognize that script on the rear fender can't quite make out what it says ,super snake maybe

As long as all the additions/revisions were done by the end of the line...did the order matter? (not saying that to be sarcastic - just that if "Ralph" was in the way move to the next car - backward or forward one - to get your task completed)

How were the door stripes applied at S-A?   One guy per side?  One guy for each car?

Port Jervis NY early 1980's show?

This was found on the internet.  Looks like an early in 67 pic since the car still has Speedways on it.
