My '71 Super Beetle ... heat was an option...bring it to the gas station,l put it on the lift and have the mechanic turn the heat on in October and off in April.
My friend's '71 Dodge Dart's horn ring fell off. When he wanted to honk the horn, he had to take the exposed wire and touch it against a piece of metal.
And of course...for all of you old timers, remember when your dad would tell you to "roll up the windows and lock the doors"?

My first car was a 1937 Dodge business coupe (2 seater with rumble seat). My second car was a 1933 Essex Terraplane. Enough said??? LOL.
