Wednesday

for my brother to drive to college around 1970 at the Border auction in San Diego. When he got it home, he was cleaning out it's trunk and under the spare wheel was something wrapped in a rag. What my dad inside when he opened it there was a load gun.

The car was fun to drive. First time I ever saw a car with a push button transmission. My brother put an 8-track tape player in the car which at the time was hi-tech.
