This thread has brought back a lot of memories for a few people.
My first car, a 1968 Cutlass, that was totaled by a city snow plow/dump truck vehicle, in the middle of summer (crested the hill and rear ended me, picked up the back end 6') and now the person that I dealt with, is our mayor. (it was interesting for both of us, because some restriction required them to pay for a rental car, and who is going to rent a car to a 17 year old)
At least once a year, I have a dream where I pull it out of the garage and drive it for a week, and at the end of the week, I have enjoyed it and am bitching about the cost of gas to drive it.
Then I had a discussion with some friends, and we got on the subject of swivel seats. His first car, he bought new when he went pro, was a 75, 442, with t tops and swivel seats. His poor buddy, went to live on a farm while doing his stuff and was given an old beat to hell, 50's chevy farm pickup with no seats, which he drove with 5 gallon bucket, "swivel seats".
