The year was 1979. I was 20 years old and I had a little bit of money tucked away. Enough to buy myself a car. A used car. And as fate would have it, my friend, Suzanne was selling her sporty car –which I had secretly admired for quite some time.
I had never spent a thousand dollars on anything in my life.
All that saving and saving — gone… with a few words on a check.
But the FUN I had driving this
1970 Pontiac Firebird
priceless.
Sure, it only got 8 miles to the gallon.
But a gallon of gas only cost $0.86 !
