You reply; "Sure! Also, how much to air up my tires?"
The attendant answers: "Nothing- air is free. "
You exclaim; "What Kinda Bizarro World Is This? !!! "

Wow that’s so far back it reminded me of a neighbor that built his own chassis camper in 61-62. The plans came from a magazine article in something like Mechanics Illustrated. He purchased a brand new F250 cab/chassis to bolt it on. Last time I drove by around 1990 it was parked in the driveway as if it was still being used routinely.

My dad used to be a pump jockey back in 68-71 at an old Standard Oil station back in South Haven, Michigan. His dad was working the counter too,

Say Lostmy65, in the dragster pic, if you scroll to the right, there's a twin engine dragster. I think I've seen that dragster in Hot Rod mag a while back. If it is him, that guy took two Olds 455 big blocks and had to custom machine the special bell housing to accommodate those to behemoths, lol.

There's a thread like this in the 67-72 trucks area of this forum,
so I was thinking we need a thread of pics of our trucks that give you that Nostalgic feeling.

So,
Post pictures that give you that Nostalgic feeling.

I'll start with these from the 4x4's Gone Wild thread:

That first picture in this thread would be a favorite with the Nissan photoshopped away

Or maybe there is something in the way.

Does anyone know what the general date (month and year) of the LIFE article was? I'd like to try and find that one on eBay if possible.

Thanks

Are these admissible in court when someone gets busted, for being somewhere, with someone their not supposed to be with?
Worse do you recognize the old family car?
