THE '60s...

  My parents went to Florida in 1960, long before I came along.... Here's a Mercedes 300SL Gullwing on the street......... What a great pic....
   Here's a scene my parents stumbled onto.... They were filming the famous "Where The Boys Are".... My parents were used as extras, but ended up on the cutting room floor......
  AWESOME... Here's one of all time favorite pics.... My dad snapped this photo of 1957 or 1958 Cadillac Eldorado Brougham at a marina... It probably still had that new car smell.... The thumbnail is linked to a 56K version of the original image, but, if you have a high speed connection, check out the JUMBO version... Click HERE..
  Well, its a little later in the '60s, and here I am.... "Car Nut in Training"...... I've included this only in case you were wondering how I got to be this way........
  Me in my little "Earth Mover".... I suspect this crazy little pedal car is worth a few bucks these days........
  I still remember this little car, a 1961 Buick station wagon....
  In the late 60's, or perhaps around 1970, my dad bought this 1968 Toronado... We went to the Smokey Mountains in this car, and the brakes failed coming down the mountain... Not good.... Neat car, though.... I still remember the barrel type speedometer....
