Re: How many '60-'66 "only drivers"?

I had a 53 five window that was my only vehicle for years when I was in the Navy. Had a 327ci and a 350 with a 9" rear end, started in 1979 driving it all through recruiting duty in Las Vegas (no air just heat) and then when I was on the Kitty Hawk at NAS North Island I would park it on base when we were at sea. I got used to watching the road conditions so I could counter steer (stock steering and I-beam axle) when need be. When I sold it the guy who bought it he had never driven an old vehicle before, he thought it should drive like a new IFS vehicle and was not happy about it after a while. One of the finagler's bought it from him on the cheap by using his perceived misery against him. Sorry I every sold it.
