    Not sure if the baked potato suited driver was in much less peril than the t shirted dude trying to extinguish a nitro blaze! These guys were pioneers, with a lot of guts.

    when i grew up in the '50s, every kid wanted boots like those! of course, mom said only "hoods" wore them, so they weren't in the cards for me...

    the pic of the bikes brought back memories. back in the '60s, most of my buddies in st. louis rode hondas. used to stay with my aunt and uncle in milwaukee, where all the guys my age had REAL motorcycles--harleys!

    What does "56 sticker time" refer to? Did drivers have to go through vehicle inspections way back then? :eek:

    PA's were 12 months, and everyone's came due the same month!!! I think in the 70's they finally split them 12 ways.
