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??

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

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.
