And we also got our oil checked, under-hood fluid levels checked, windshield washed, etc. all for the price of the gasoline.... what went wrong with that system?? :bigbye:

....that little green guy waving is "the way things used to be."

Mark, Charlie must of worked for free. :rotf:

yep worked almost for free...growing up and working on a farm in mississippiin the early sixties was very interesting.... box of shotgun shells was 2.50 and 22s were49 cents...parkers were cheaper then to.... wish i had bought me one or two..... well them were the good old days.... still had most of my hair on my head.... cant stay in the sun to long now with out a hat....do you still have that gto...ive got our old 56 2 door sedan chev.. but it needs work.... atlas no more cotten to chop how am i going to pay for that new parker ive been wanting..... charlie

I wish I still had that '65 GTO - I could sell it and buy a Parker 28 ga. A1S with the proceeds. I bought it a year old for $2200, did some work to the engine and sold it a little over two years later for $1800.... I don't have any idea what I was thinking to do such a thing.... Anyway, the brainless kid I sold it to smoked a perfectly good 3,800 lb. clutch, both rear tires and wound it around a pole sideways all in twelve weeks. I still have nightmares that I stored that car in an old vine-draped garage somewhere deep in the woods and I can't find it.... it haunts me to this day.

closetest care i had to a gto was a 66 lemans....326 powder glide.... bought that care for 500.00 fixed and painted it...drove it for a family car for 14 years let it set up for about 10 years and sold it for 2500.00....those old goats were something........ charlie
