I wonder why he chose an 89 Bronco?


Beats me. I'd take, let's see......a Vette.
Yeah, a Vette. And a Nelson Riddle CD.

I'd like a 55. 56 or 57 chev convertible.


I drove it from Barstow to St. Louis in 1964 in my first new car. I was 20
years old, and driving a 140+ mph Chevy Impala SS 4 speed, 3.36 rear gears
and a 300 hp small block. Later went to 3.70 gears. Still a great trip.
Unfortunately was first 2 weeks of January. Had to be in Dayton, OH for
school on Jan 11. Drove into a sleet storm in Missouri and out of it as an
11" blizzard at Terra Haute.
