Lane Tech had Chevy Impalas, '63s and '64s -- last years' models donated or leased by one of the big Chicagoland GM dealers, probably as a tax write-off.
I'm not sure what Hollywood High's Drivers ed cars were, I never got in them. Maybe they were Mopars.
If the May Co. provided Javelins [with makeshift dual contols] that was a pretty hot car for that role. They may have de-tuned the engines so students didn't get into trouble. I wasn't too inpressed by its performance, but the Instructor didn't let me get too wild. I could use the downshift technique coming down hills with that automatic. Is that called Lockup?
