Remember These Things?

[joe smith]

We were so po that Green Stamps bought us our Santa Claus presents and our stocking toys were the toys out of cereal boxes. I had a brother 10 years younger than me and was told, "Since he is younger he should get most of the presents", and just like that, my presents became underwear, socks, and school clothes.

LOL... I was the oldest too...
NEVER marry the " baby " of a family...

I had to look in the side pocket to see if the S&H green stamp was still there.

I have the same in Raiders & my dad has 49ers

Really ? they're like a smoked grey color ? I had a bunch, they'd give you a glass for every fillup more than 10 gallons, if I recall... was very easy with my Mopar !

I have that same button

Oh no, I did not think about that button, maybe I should Blacken it out. I don't want to be flagged with a Political item in a no politics allowed thread.

Is that a low pipe bike? I have raced a few of those in vintage races. I dont own a 380 but I do own a 250

Low pipe with the knee grip tank. 1971.
It was scene from Christine when I bought it. The guy almost gave it to me, and he said he knew he was almost giving it to me. He said the bike had just every single person who rode it. I've taken a couple spills, but it gave me the most memorable ride of any bike. It must have had carbon as it wouldn't kill. The devil bike was in first gear at full throttle in my alley and somehow I got it doing cookies and I slowly choked it down and out.

yeah I was mistaken
I only have 2 of them left, both are Raiders, smoked color
my dad is/was hard on "booze" glasses, he said he broke his 49ers ones...

we do have 2 49er beer mugs 'he got from a Texaco station'
in Lafayette Ca. way back when

My 250 was given to me. It was complete but needed lots of work. The guy that gave it to me has several more, I hope one day he will decide to sell them to me.

Is that the same Jeri that built the two door (from a four door!) Hemi station wagon? (63 or 64 dodge, if I remember right).
Edit: I think it is. Is/was a member here.
2nd edit: it's a 62 dodge, and I wish it was mine!!!
