My fav car - my folks gave me a red ‘57 Chevy with a white top that would go like the wind, or so it seemed, for high school graduation. We used to have gas wars in Kansas and it would get down to $.19 a gallon. Graduated when I was still 16 and they wouldn’t let me drive after dark - too dangerous they said - but we still managed to squeeze in a little fun.
Yep, I remember Gas wars, they were great until the frickin' government outlawed them.
