Ah, yess; the day. I traded my '69 Chevy 4x4 for a '69 Dodge A100 shorty that was lowered (with blocks in the rear and flipped leaves in front (bad deal, that)); had walnut and maple paneling, and gold shag carpet. It drove like a drunk squirrel, but it looked good, sitiin' still.
When we bought our house, we couldn't qualify with two car payments, so we sold the van and kept the '68 Chevelle SS396.
