I’ll wager that you have many, many fond memories of those drives across the country.
It was the most fun vehicle I ever owned. Turned the middle seat around and had a traveling lounge. On weekends would bootleg for a fair sized clientèle at my college located in a dry county in Arkansas. There was usually a crowd wanting to go with. Only got stopped once and just happened to have the Federal judges son with us. Got off with a warning and didn’t ever get stopped again.
