couple of cool memories are in the fall of 76,riding on the school bus,i kept seeing,in one of yards of the homes we passed, a really bad looking 55 chev,straight axle,flip front and "mighty mouse" painted on the 1/4's. now that was the start of me needing a fast car!
another in 1978 or so,my dad had a insurance agency uptown,and i mowed grass,and walking to the near gas station,i heard a fantastic engine start up,and clear out! i spun around to see a faded,but clean maverick leaving the gas station,cragers,open headers,and tom lipman driving.the local wildman,now dead druggie. he left the station,banging gears,and front end looking a little light,and posi's all over the mainstreet. later i found out,that his dad had a boss 302 wrecked,and they cobbed it into the maverick,man i can still see that bad machine,and toms wild look.
