1st car. WOW. 1940 Plymouth Club Coupe. Gas was 17.5¢ a Gallon. Wages $1.25 an hour.
Fastest thing on the street Ford Flatheads, fastest thing on the highway, Chrysler 300's, Buick Century or a Caddy.
They weren't much out of the hole but once they got to 70MPH they'd suck the glass out of your mirrors.
AHH those were the days.
Best wishes, Bill
