Some of you probably remember the oil embargo late 70's , well around 1979-80 we would chip in as a bunch of friends and buy joy ride barges with 455 (bigger better lol) for $50 or so and drive them to the ground, go as fast as we could (reckless drinking and driving in the country roads or dirt roads... lucky I didn't kill myself or others
, sometimes we would put a brick or rock on the gas pedal and blow the engine, another instance we damage the transmission and could only drive on reverse. What bad teens we were, kicking myself. Now some of these beaters are 5000$ + Unbelievable !
