That was a great car. Bet you wish you still had it, and in that condition.

Forgive me, I've posted this elsewhere, but here's Walker, Bob and Kelly 1970 with pal Joey on flute, performing "Tuesday Afternoon" for a yearbook photo op. Bob (me) second from left with 61 Stratocaster I should have put in a safe deposit box. (Ditto for the 58 Gibson ES 175D, 2nd from right, I bought from Kelly for $100 in 1971.)




And here I am with my first camera, Easter 1954, between siblings. Don't have any of the shots I took then, ha ha. This one was shot with an EP1 with the 20/1.7 lens detached/tilted from the camera.

The fastest I ever traveled on the ground (as a backseat passenger, and an unwilling one) was in a Coronet 440 one night in 1969 on a long straightaway on the coastal plains of North Carolina. The needle maxed out at 155. I'm glad there weren't any curves.

Circa 1983, already married with 2 kids. Was using a Rollei 35S at the time.

Me (on the right) in about 1951 at a zoo which was 150 miles away from home. Now, 60 years later I live a mile away from this place!

Oh for sure. They were made for rectilinear motion only. If I punched the throttle in a turn, the rear wheels had axle hop enough to loosen your teeth.
