Old 1958 Toronto Video


It covers Toronto and a bit of Southern Ontario. At 2 minutes 51 seconds you have to freeze-frame or you'll miss the old automotive gems that flash by.

A drive down the QEW looks like a drive down Highway 2A out of Scarborough before it merges with the eastbound 401.

They drive past a transport with new 1955 Studebakers.

Towards the end they also drive down a holding lot at GM Oshawa circa 1955. Rows of brand new Chevrolets and Canadian Pontiacs.

The narrator is none other than Pierre Berton.
