Love the three tail lights and the cut outs. Those old vettes were like kit cars - so easy to modify and then put back stock!
FYI—If you apply an inflation calculator to 21 cents per gallon starting in 1965, the cost of the same gallon in 2020 is $1.72 per gallon. When adjusted for inflation, the cost to the U. S. Consumer has not risen a lot in 55 years.
Local NHRA champ from Fayetteville. The driver, Bobby Brown, passed away last year. 396/375 car. These engines were really underrated.
In the background is the Royal Dodge HEMI Dodge driven by the late Campbell Cross out of Moncure. It was a local A stock terror. This was also a Fayetteville, N.C. car.
I can remember seeing pump prices in the .30 cent range and a self serve pump was not heard of. Gas was .70 when I started driving in 77 - 78. I could fill my rusted out POS Pinto for under $5.00 and drive for a week.
I worked at a Sunoco station when gas wars had Sunoco 190 at 17 cents per gallon. My favorite part was cleaning windshields when a hot chick drove in for gas......
