They should have started one street over. (King Auto sounds so much better.)
We didn't get a store until the '80s. They still flogged plenty of military surplus, but I never saw a jeep in a box!
Did you tow it home?

Maverick, On your blue '56 Ford full frontal picture, you may be wondering why there is a square hole in the snow near the top.
Well, I'm here to tell you.
There's probably a square hole in the windshield right behind the missing snow. Now you're wondering about the square hole in the middle of the windshield. Well, I'm here to tell you.
If you are driving your '56 Ford a little to fast in the fog and you shoot off of a T intersection and some selfish inhabitant has put his mail box right there, you may just miss the post but the four foot arm with the mail box on it is swung off to the side slightly and is lined up with the middle of your windshield. The box comes into your car and then goes out quickly, taking a square section out of your windshield and not scratching any of the paint on your car. Quite often you can fix up the mailbox with a hammer and a pair of pliers, but you can't fix that windshield, easily.
Don't ask me how I know all this stuff.

Holy mackeral, that train is floundering up there. I hope it doesn't fall just for the halibut.

The Trashmen, Minnesota's best surf band.
Still playing. The son of a deceased original member is playing with them.

Takes me back. About the only good memories i have as a kid were the car shows at memorial hall in KC. Yep, saw the Trashmen perform there.
