Like Neil, I just
celebrated...at least it came and went, my 56th B day... and tomorrow will
celebrate 35 years of wedded bliss!
I don't remember all of the
fifties, ... some nights of the sixties are vague, but I do remember cars with
fins, muscle cars, the music and a few slang terms..most of which were
brought up already. I also remember the Cold war scare, Kennedy's
assassination, and the landing of the man on the moon the day after my 18th
Bday.
I also remember destroying
a 59 Imperial so I could scavenge the hemi, the torqueflite and put is all in my
48 Studebaker pickup. After setting that huge motor and tranny in that
little pickup, and putting a Dodge straight axle in and a Plymouth rear end, all
I needed was a driveshaft about 26 inches long...then reality set in... my
dad...get that death trap out of my yard...sold it for $75 and it never did
fly. Wish I had that big pink Crown Imperial today!
