It was GREAT having access to that car in High School. All the jocks were driving around in Mustangs, Pontiacs and older rods, I was driving a Luxoboat. dad traded it in for a 1960 LeBaron around 1963. That was even better.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22657443.post-57909323981626569132009-11-18T12:12:24.381-06:002009-11-18T12:12:24.381-06:00The race against the time, cannot be chased using ...The race against the time, cannot be chased using cars.

There were three American luxury cars in those days: Cadillac, Lincoln, and Imperial. Imperial was the number three seller, year after year. This year, 1957, was the one and only year in which they almost overtook Lincoln in sales and became number two. In other words, this car was <I>the underdog</I>! That's the one thing about it that appeals to one's egalitarian urges and hankerings.Lester Hunthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14746157071827337723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22657443.post-54622510635475292422007-06-06T16:15:00.000-05:002007-06-06T16:15:00.000-05:00I'm with you 100% on this.
