hood flew open....

[John T. Hodgen]

Back in the 70's I got a '56 Chevy with no hood from a friend. Cost $200, they were coming from Disney World when it blew completely off and didn't hit the 'shield. I asked why they didn't pick it up? Answer..we were drunk. Wish I still had that Chevy. Bought it with a full tank of gas, had to find an "Old Timer" to tell me where the fill waswhen I needed gas John T.

Was pumping gas at a shell station at 16

a 56 came in.... the guy got a big kick out of me hunting for 5 minutes for the gas filler..... laughed his ... off.... I wasn't finding any humor.... he finally twisted the taillight center trim and the light flipped down... I think that was in 1967 or 68...???? what this site won't do to churn up some memories....LOL
