Great shots, thank you . It happens that I got permission to drive in '64, after studying all manner of many car mags for four years. In '78 the state called me in to HQ for an interview. They felt it important to know why my driving record was so epic. I decided that ( talking to the badge ) the truth was that having begun driving in '64, I was prone to getting caught in the flow of pop music. That that led to my foot pushing to the floor. Quoting song ***les from '64 , and singing some of the popular car and drag tunes of the day, brought the inspector to nod and return my papers. He told me to grow up, then said goodbye .
In '64/'65 the only thing I was driving were Jeeps and Deuce & a Halves. Had a student who wrecked the family grocery-getter like that. Favorite tune came on, buddy cranked up the volume, bye-bye corner, hello corn field.
