1952 Chevrolet. I made about 50 yds, but when i failed to make the cruve on my first 6 yo drive out the long dirt driveway, with mom running after me while screaming, and started bumping over the cactus and mesquite in the pasture, dad jumped up from the passenger side floor and seat and took control.

bet ya wish you still had the Chevelle.......

I always wanted to be one of you kind of people.

Ford Model A truck with a home-made wooden flat bed for hauling square hay bales, I have no idea what vintage it was, only that it was certainly pre-WW2. It belonged to a semi-retired dairy farmer who couldn't make a living milking 30 cows, but farming was in his blood, so he continued to make hay when the grass was growing, cut and split firewood, and make maple syrup when the sap was running as a means by which to supplement his SSI.

A ranchero.

1956 Plymouth Savoy, 4 door, two-tone, black with a white roof, 3 spd. on the column.

1979 F250 4x4, 400 4sp.

Yeah, I paid $700.00 for it. I blew up the engine and burned the rear tires off of it. After we put another engine in and replaced the tires, my old man made me get rid of it. After that, I bought a 1970 Camaro RS. I took pretty good care of it until I wrecked it. It's amazing that we had these cool cars and took them for granted.

Eight years ago I bought this from one of my customers. It's a '68. He had it for 5 years. When he first bought it, I told him that I had first dibs on it if he ever wanted to sell it. This one is in a lot better shape than the '69 I had when I was a kid.

1972 F-250 4x4 360 4-speed
