    Congrats man!

    Gas was 99¢ a gallon when I got mine. Guess I'm getting old.

    Be safe, don't try all that hairy shit that gets kids smashed into a telephone pole....at least if you do try the hairy shit, be safe at it (YES, a person can be safe and have fun).

    ...yep...I'm getting old. :D

    Enjoy the newfound freedom of the open road...don't speed in your own neighborhood. That could be your mother walking you just sped by, doing waaaayyyyyyy over the speed limit...:eek:

    I can relate to Johnny fast. When I was 18 and in college gas was 19 cents a gallon for regular. Hell, a few years later I used to fill the race car with Sunoco 260 for 31 cents a gallon. AHHHHH!!!! the good old days.

    Excellent. Now, it's time for the safety briefing:

    Don't do anything STUPID.
    If you have to ask yourself, "Is this stupid?", it is.

    Have fun.
     
  22. Wise words. Welcome and enjoy, but be careful.

    Jeez. You just made me remember how I used to stop a block from drivers ed and let my mother drive me the rest of the way to class :)
    Finally got caught tho. Was sitting at a red light and my Driver's Ed. teacher pulled up next to me. Not one of my better moments.

    I remember 19c a gallon too, but then I was making a buck and a quarter an hour bucking hay, hoeing beets, shoveling shit, and moving pipe back then. Worked the farm six days a week all summer for about 600 bucks. I make that in a week now. Still can't afford to fill the tank sometimes...

    Congrats on the license I've had mine 25-1/2 yrs already. 1st car still have, but the driver was a Vega. It was a P*ssy wagon! Very busy in that car, cut my teeth going to Saugus Speedway & OCIR. was a gift. I had a 68 GTO Conv next. 4 spd & all. Sold it 19ys ago, been sick ever since. Gas was a yo-yo just like it is now, Min wage was like $2.65hr, so needless to say I had wait until 87 before I could afford my 1st 3W Coupe. Spent a sh*t load of money on that deal, but used it to buy a house several years later, still have alot parts left over to build a dupe!
    Stay focused & safe. we all get a lil crazy screwing around, if you're gonna do that, it should be a controlled enviroment. Most of all you have th priviledge of Freedom! use it wisely. 63 Poncho,=My kinda kid! 389 I hope! I've gotta 65 A-body ragtop still, bought that for my sis when I started driving legally also.
    Have fun!!!!!:D
     
  27. Your old! gas was .22/gallon when I got mine.

    Congratulations and happy rodding! And to add my nostalgia, I worked in a Phillips 66 and pumped full serve gas at 17.9 cents a gallon. Washed the windows, checked under the hood, and put air in the tires. Those were the good old days. But today is going to be tomorrows good old days, too. Be safe and wear a seat belt. Helps you keep control.
