When my brother and I were in high school we bought a 1967 Chevy Impala with a 283 V8 and 4 barrel carb, complete leaky fuel line and a hole in the roof above the rear view mirror, paying $25 for it. We promptly went to the Fisher Big Wheel (a sorta low-rent K-Mart) and bought a tape deck and two small speakers for $35. At this point we were broke, and proceeded to make some sweet cassette tapes of various albums. Not having anything to cut through the rear seat deck panel to place the speakers, we ran some speaker wire and jammed them underneath the elevated headrests. That car rocked. We sold it for $200 a few years later, and my dad was as proud as only a used car salesman papa could be.
The latest mix theme for the growing CD traders at work thus was "Spring Driving with the windows down", prompted by my memory of said car, and to celebrate my dad's sale of a similar vintage Impala convertible he sold recently via the internet. He thought that was pretty cool that a woman in Seattle bought his car in western Pennsylvania... And when I hear Van Halen cranking out You Really Got Me, I am back in my Impala...."I'll load the whole mixtape up to my M site":http://dharmachris.multiply.com
