| When I saw the picture of Guy Juke’s car on the web site, it reminded me that once he was driving very slowly so as not to draw any attention from the police. They stopped him anyway - for impeding traffic. (Nancy Ellis-Wagner) |
| My father had bought a used Volvo (the old pregnant Volkswagen style) for my older sisters to drive us all around. A few years ago, the family was reminiscing about it.

| My Karman Ghia. We used to sit on the back row in church on Sunday nights.... sneak out during church and drive around in the Karman Ghia. The greatest part was fitting 6 people in that tiny car and stopping at a light and having a Chinese Fire Drill. Wish I had that same Karman Ghia today! (David Lumbley) |
| Kathy Huff's yellow Mustang. It was a standard shift and she didn't want to come to a full stop, so I would just jump out on a slow roll when we got to my house. (Cyndy Hood) |
| Steve Kelton tore apart a Corvair just to see what made it work, and put it back together! (Gary Cole) Steve Responds: |

And yes my 67 GTO and then the 67 Mustang GT fastback. Got married in that one. My son will not forgive me to this day for selling that one. I have nightmares about that also. Beth Stringer probably was never the same after riding with me in that 'TANG down College Hills Blvd. - 110 mph...don't know today how I managed to stay alive. (John Hurt) |
| "Racing stripes"... And my 1st car, a 1961 NSU PRINZ, (two cylinder ).....all my parts had to come from the other NSU Prinz in town (out at the junkyard). I spent a lot of time there. |

| This must be a guy page. I still don't know what a lot of that stuff is. I remember by Volkswagen blue bug. I never could parallel park but that was OK because if I got the front part in, Tara and I could pick up the rear end and put it in place. My car is too big these days, and besides Tara lives in Will Point, TX and I'm in Farmington, NM. I still can't parallel park. (Denise Lakey) |

| Learning to drive in a '57 Chevy at Lake Nasworthy! (Bunny Barber-Miles) ... from the webmaster: For me, it was a manual shift ''55 Chevy at O.C. Fisher (North Concho), where I could only run into mesquite trees or a dry lake bed. |
Re-routing the windshield washer hose to the ashtray and filling the reservoir with booze that you stole from your folks liquor cabinet.
