Two of my four sisters learned to drive a stick in that car. That was also the first vehicle I ever "drove". Dad would sit me on his lap and let me steer it around the barnyard.

We had a '52 Willys. My dad sold it when I was about 14 and I was broken-hearted. I wanted that little wagon for my own when I turned 16!

Prior to the Willys, we had a Packard... but that was before my time.

Let's see... I remember Dad's '69 Roadrunner and Mom's VW wagon (don't remember the year). A '65 Chevy pickup, too, I think.
