@mytdawg: When I was a kid, if a car had this lean, it was a Chrysler product. Why was that?

This car raaaaaaawks!

The 1970s Chevy Monza and Pontiac Sunbird. I was in college at a time when many of my friends had these, because they were cheap and plentiful. They were cramped, flimsy, and surprisingly ponderous on the road.

I say more power to whoever owns this car for actually driving the thing. I say what's the point in owning a car like this if you can't drive it?

Man, *more* age-defining musical references. I had all but wiped that RevCo cover from my memory, thankyouverymuch.

My kindergarten teacher had one of these. Seeing one always makes me think of that stout, white-haired 60-year-old with her gray suits and her black clutch. Kids would modify these in later years and I'd just chuckle that they were driving a kiddygarden teacher's car.

Author Murilee Martin sure revealed her approximate age with the Bitchin' Camaro reference!
