I remember going to the grocery store with my mom and she would fill up the back of our 57 Plymouth station wagon and it would only cost $27.  The other day i came out of the grocery store with 2 small bags and it was $94.   ???
Used to own a 1968 MCI 5A and a 1977 5C.

I was working at a Gas station and we only needed 40.00 in change to open in the morning. Gas was .49 cents a gallon and cigarets were .15 cents a pack. Gave maps away for free and sold Oil, fuses, tire changes and patching. Water and air was free. He made money off the back bays. I made 42.00 a week and could use the tools and lifts at work.
I will start SS this next month and finally be rich!.....Yesss ::)
