Wealthy fathers or crazy teachers?
Being male, an accident of birth. Being a man, a matter of age. Being a gentleman, a matter of choice.

pretty cool.

I started high school in 1979. I rode the bus, but I remember a lot of the older kids having Camaros and other muscle cars. When I was 16 I had a 1968 El Camino with a 327. I loved that car.

Barb had a '68 Firebird in high school, (6 banger tho) was quite proud of the fact she beat a mustang in a race (didn't have many straightaways)

Late 70's most of those cars were approaching 10 years of age, and they were everywhere at that point so...
