what I was waxing in '64. Thinking about driving it in 3 years.

Back then only way outers had Volvos. And grew up in a Hudson River Village 30m from Grand Central by train.

Fast Forward to Geely (Volvo) Chineese...Electric ONLY.

    Hi CB

    RE: waxing the 64

    Nice pic. Likely we'll be seeing more of this when Trump gets around to repealing those pesky child labor regulations.

    Great picture! Brought back memories - me and my dad in 1957, Indiana, PA -- behind his custom '54 Olds.



    Things change. Oldsmobile now gone. Saab now gone. Volvo would have been too had Ford not bought them back in the late 90's. Such is life.

      cheers.
      buy the way, dad's Plymouth, which was "Plaza" slightly less trim, 3 speed on the column, a solid steel dashboard, added on under the dash heater controls and added on Lap seat belts, (which from my experience in HS, did not prevent your jaw from hitting the top of the steering wheel, when making a short emergency stop. 3 speed on the column. AM radio. Flathead 6 - spark plugs across the top of the head. Baby Blue. my dad sold it in 1974 and about 5 years later Johnny Cash - wanted one cause he had fond memories of a Baby Blue Plymouth Plaza... $5000.
