Re: '58 Belvedere: The Anti-Corolla

This was one of my favorite threads of all time.
It was a visceral thread that brought back many car memories.
To best understand, it takes prior experience, seeing, growing up with, driving and really experiencing what you've so colorfully written about.
Flathead Packard 8's. The aoohga horn on a Model A.
Cars with fins, AM radios, and even some with split windshields.
Flooring the accelerator and actually being thrown back in your seat by a production v-8 powered rwd vehicle.
Trying not to get pulled over on a Saturday night.
Making it home safely.

Thanks for this thread Buick. Thanks for the memories.
