And off the shoulders is better than hiked up like his neighbor.

This picture came across my facebook page and I thought I'd share it here.
The picture was taken in the late '70s or early '80s of the Ice Road between Kingston, Ontario and Wolf Island (across part of Lake Ontario). It was about 2 miles long and was commonly used until sometime in the mid-80s.
Looks like a squareback heading over to the Island from Kingston, and a Gremlin parked on the ice.

Not sure of the date of this photo.
Capitol Theatre in Passaic New Jersey, early 70's maybe.
Somebody with more knowledge maybe able to tell but nose looks like an Early Super. Could be the fuzziness of the photo or my bad eyesight.

This is a figure published in a aero textbook in 1965 by Dr. Sighard Hoerner called Fluid-Dynamic Drag. In it, he references a 1951 Panel to calculate drag coefficient.
