  1972 Lincoln Continental Mark IV

  Car did not have a scratch on it.

  His favorite car, of which he had

  many. In fact, I bought 2 Corvairs

  from this man. It had the

  polyester type seats. Big 460

  CID engine, ran fantastic. The

  only thing I did not like is the

  original shag carpet. Gave this

  to my dad as he got older and

  was hard for him to get in and

  out of the Bronco. When he 

  passed away, I gave it to my

  sister-in-law (again).

  1959 Lincoln Mercury Wagon

  My first driving experience was in a 1959

  Lincoln Mercury Station Wagon. When I

  was 13, my dad would send me to the store

  to get milk and some cigars for him. Was

  lucky no one caught me. But he knew I had

  been around cars since I was 6 years old.

  (We were a racing family from Michigan.

  Around the tracks and pits all the time.)

  And I used to pretend driving an old 1951

  Hudson we had in our front yard, along

  with a 1962 Hillman.

  Took my first driving test in the ‘beast’. Got

  a 100 % on both the written and the driving

  tests (and in those days this included

  parallel parking !). They even put a placque

  on the DrivoTrainer for me.

  A small side note…Got my first ticket the

  same day I got my license. Pulled out of a

  parking lot at dusk and as I did I turned on

  my lights. Cop said I should have turned on

  the lights sooner.

  Bummer.
