re: #47 ipsos

Dad’s first car was a Corvair. Later on he owned a Vega, which I remember mostly as the thing he was always swearing at in the garage when I was little.

Somehow we all survived….

Best car Dad ever had was a 1967 Chrysler Newport. Beautiful inside and out, ran like a top. Pop got 115,000 miles on it before he decided to trade it for a 1973 model which was the worst hunk of junk ever. Everything went wrong with that car. radiator leaked, piston broke, brake fluid leaked. Even the car seats were cheap, they cracked and the springs popped out. Dad just had it towed to the junkyard and he got a Ford LTD which lasted till he retired in 1983. It was a beautiful cream color. Also it was assembled in California.
