The age when there were “buy Elvis’s plane” fans was 35 years ago when the present owner bought it. I wonder what he got out of the purchase and if he feels that it was money well spent (or is this an estate sale?).

Hmmm. And here I thought you were all hard-drinking, unintelligible red-beards.

My third car is a 1960 Imperial (surprised?) that has a push-button transmission. It was common on Chrysler cars 1956-1964, but nobody knows about them now.
