Back in 1975 I drove my 1967, Ram Air GTO from Youngstown, Ohio to Ft Lauderdale Florida and back. Straight through both ways. Got to love those 4.33 gears on the highway for a couple thousand miles!

Dad would do that.

He drove our '63 SD Catalina, aluminum front end car from Detroit to visit family in SE Missouri.

Swapped the gear set and made passes at George Ray's drag strip and then drove it home.

Hard for me to pick just one memory.

I don't remember it myself but I know when my sister was born Dad and I went down to Royal and picked up the GTO instead of going to see Mom and Jenny in the hospital. That was September 1964.

I remember flat towing the GTO to the track and pretending "Casper the Friendly Ghost" was driving.

Also taking the '65 to A&W for root beer and hot dogs. I can say with authority that the little cup holder indent in the glovebox has been used as intended.

Going to the drag strip and losing the siren to my Buddy L tow truck in the dirt. Going back the next weekend and finding it in the dirt (since we parked in the same spot).

I remember taking our '68 to Florida. At the time any of the cars built for hot climates were built with the steel front bumper, so folks down there were really excited to see an endura front bumper. We had to have that bumper painted about 4 times within the first year of ownership because the paint didn't stick.
