Old Jeepney in Ayala

I took this photo yesterday as I was riding inside another jeepney in front of this one. Jeepneys are still a major form of transportation for most of Metro Manila's roads and have been a part of the Filipino commuter's life since after World War II.

Looks like this Jeepney has the name "Vincent" above the windscreen. Any story behind that?
Love the subject of your photo today!

Hi Chris and Deb! Usually, the jeepney owners name their jeepneys on their family members or they also name it on how they would like to be known for. Perhaps "Vincent" is the son of the jeepney's driver I could only surmise
