Why enthusiasm for cars & why it matters
My Rancher Dad bought me a cowboy hat and belt buckle with a longhorn on it.
I found a full-time job at a Chevron station and bought myself a '65 Plymouth Valiant four-door sedan ($125.00). The first thing I did (before converting it to a street-legal bracket racer) was to put a pair of aluminum slots on the rear with A60-13 tires. He could never understand why I bothered to change the wheels over. I "borrowed" the magnum idea from big-brother big blocks. The foto shows the end of the five-year transformation.
