Cool. You could drive to the post office in the $2000 Chevy, we had a 54, burning .25 c. gas and mail your letter with a 3 c. stamp. Pickup a 16 oz. t-bone for a buck or less, couple loaves of bread for quarter. Of course, I was just a twinkle in my Daddy's eye at the time. He was shoveling coal on an outpost way freight. Ask ole Snippy. He would remember this era, I'm sure.

Interesting my folks first "new car" was a 1953 Ford 2-door all black. My first car is a 1954 Chevrolet 2-door. Bought it for a $100. Got me between Everett and Bham for several years during the early 70's.

No it's "Ford Truck Month". It took me a while to figure out that "every month" is "Ford Truck Month". Or it could be a month when all "RAM Trucks" are on sale. Or it could be a month where "mattresses" are on sale for ridiculously low prices.

I would like that but my try tonight resulted in the same error notice (it's a BJ error notice by the way) on chatbox. As of April 1st, chatbox went kaput. I can read it but cant reply. Once again the error mesage I get is a "Burning Journal" error message. Cant see where my current browser has anything to do with it.
Wow! ...just in the last few minutes I open up another tab for the BJ so I can copy the error msg I'm getting, type in "Test 123" and hit "send message" and "no error message" it just took my post and quickly dumped it into cyberspace as it doesnt show posted. This is something new.
You mechanically inclined and car buffs will have fun
with this picture. Just about every cool car is in this
picture...except for the "Welcome Wagon".
