@DaveMcK , are you cleaning out your garden shed?

[DaveMcK]

Cleaned out our lawn and garden when we down sized when we moved into our two bedroom apartment in our retirement center.

I’m still driving a 5+R and love it!

The car that was simply a blast to drive for me was my college boyfriend’s MG - I truly had the feeling I was flying when I drove on rural roads!

The only tricky thing about it was that it had a manual choke, so you had to baby it and listen to the engine when you started it in cold weather. 
Thanks for the memory.

 Had one with 5+R but never a 6+R.

Last month, I bought a SUV, first automatic I have ever owned except for my first car over 50 years ago.  I miss my sticks and wonder when I will ever get used to an automatic.  They're hard to find these days. 😢

  I found this early 70s ad, and had to share it here!

One of my first jobs was pumping gas.  Yep, checked oil and put air in tires.  Had a uniform shirt, but not white (it's not exactly the cleanest job) and no hat.

Brights on.  Brights off.  I still would prefer this to the dimmer being on the steering wheel.  Half the time, I end up flashing the oncoming card or turning on the windshield wipers. Old habits sometimes die really hard.

Is that the floor board button to dim and expand your headlights?  I liked them.  Course now the “smart” car is suppose to do it all.

@DaveMcK , that's a flour sifter.
