    I think I built that same model; Monogram? They usually had the stylish rigs to build.

    That's actually a decent price considering the insane prices for early Broncs and Scouts lately.

    When I was 11 years old a blue one of these pulled up next to me and a guy got out. Asked me for directions. Then proceeded to egg me and kick me to the ground and call me some choice names. Every time I see one of these cars I see red.

    What the heck? Some psycho on the loose in your neighborhood? Who the hail eggs an 11 year old and kicks them to the ground!?

    It was "the thing to do" in the Seventies. I had a couple jackasses shoot me with a soda bottle when I was on my bike in '79; fortunately, an old man in a Caddy boat sailed up behind them and blew his foghorn....

    You never saw the movie Dazed & Confused did you? It was a documentary.

    Oh I saw it, but not until the 90's. People do crappy things to total strangers all the time, but that level of regularity is just hard for me to fathom.
