Counting the seven at the top and the 25 at the bottom I remember 16 out of the bunch. Heck some of the top ones are on the 55 Chevy I rebuilt and have had since high school. Heck I learned to drive in a 60 Chevy long bed, stepside pickup. Three on the tree with a inline 6.... Find a kid nowdays who even knows what three-on-the-tree means.....

When I see a friend of ours that's 86 and hear how things were when he was a kid it really makes me wonder how things will be when, God willing, I make it to that age myself.....
