You can see it on Google StreetView, and there are plenty more pictures online to help with the ID. http://www.flickr.com/photos/16939591@N04/3373961177/ -- Last edit: 2011-03-19 00:57:06

mp775 ◊ 2015-09-28 00:06	A couple of sites say it's a 1955 - http://www.brunerfoundation.org/rba/pdfs/2005/CH5.pdf#page=20, Link to "articles.orlandosentinel.com" I can't verify if that's accurate; it has "1955" painted on it in reference to Rosa Parks' boycott and may be where those authors got the idea it was a 1955.
