Back in ‘62 I was tooling around town on weekends with my Dads’ 61 Buick Special, a compact with an aluminum block V8 that would really scoot. Gas was $0.18 a gallon unless you want 100 octane for .20 (just realized that my keyboard doesn't have a cents key). The $1.25 an hour I made working behind the lunch counter at People's Drug Store on weekends made me a rich kid who could spend $5 on a date.

One of the dumbest mistakes GM ever made was selling that Buick V8 to British Leyland. The engines that go in the Range Rovers are of the same basic design.

“Cool” hasn’t ever gone away, I just realized. LOL
