Back in 1970 at the age of 16 I wanted to learn to drive and being poor country boy who's dad didn't own a car I had a problem. But luck came my way getting a summer job with a state sponsored job clearing brush along county creeks. My Dad told that an older gentleman had passed away and his family wanted to sell his 1950 Ford pickup. I bought it for $75.00. It was in pretty good shape with a flat head eight cylinder engine and floor mounted three speed trans. I learned to drive by driving through the paster fields until I ran out of gas than buy two gallons more and repeat. Wonderful memories and oh how I wish I would have kept that little old truck.

Thank you for this awesome video. Enjoyed it from start to finish. The 1960s and back car shows transport me to a bygone era.

57 olds Super 88 at about (46:19) of this video....I had one of those in 1972 when I was in high school....and I was 16 yrs old. It was gloss black and was like a mirror ! I paid 100.00 dollars for it ....mowing yards!

the 1957 olds was the best looking olds ever made. the sweeping lines made it look like it was moving standing still. and the split rear window was inspired.

Great vid as usual! Don't normally care for the music, but it was a welcome respite from that kid obnoxiously shouting 'rev it up' ad nauseum.

I’ll keep my 2018 Sierra until the axles snap off. $90k for a truck is just stupid.
