When we lived in Texas, my folks had enough with the 64 BelAir wagon (283) we brought from PA that started overheating after adding the AC unit under the dash that sprayed water out when you made a hard left. Traded it on a New yellow 1969 Dodge Polara wagon (383-2V) with the "super light", an added light next to the LH headlights in the grille. I swear it dint work.
After church, my brother and I waited in the yella' submarine while the grownups chit-chatted, my dad wouldn't give up the keys so we couldn't play the MoPar-Motorola car radio with the thumbwheel dials. We figgerd out that if you kept your foot on the brake and fiddled with the turn signals, the radio would play. Chryslers wiring is legend, and that starter's dino-like sound!
Yeah Sandy, we wanted a 1972 Torino with woody sides and the dome-mount spotlights. Those Fords and Mercurys were damn nice looking!
