I was 14 and my uncle Bob had a 1960 Chrysler New Yorker 2dr hardtop.
413 with the long ram induction and a push button transmission.
This was the first big block car I rode in that made an impression.
He would stand on it from a stop light and the rear tires would just boil.
I can still remember the smell of the tire smoke.
What a time to be alive. Three years later he was in a bit of trouble with some of the boys in blue so he traded the car to me for a 23 channel CB! What a deal.
I drove the car all through college and dated my wife in the car.
The best part of the story is that I still have it! Who says all the good ones get away?
