and some even converted them back to regular Road Runners.

There was a fellow at the end of our block that had a Road Runner sitting in his driveway.
Hadn't moved for years. I didn't have my licence yet and kept my eyes on it. Some neighborhood guy ended up buying it. It went for $400.00

But even then, that was a fair amount of money for a young fellow to come up with.

Later on, I looked at a beautiful 57 Chevy. 3 on the floor, tick and roll. $1100.00.

I couldn't afford it either. In my Province, you have to be careful as you need a Winter vehicle more than anything. Probably why I ended up owning more trucks and 4x4's than anything else.

Regina used to be the Hot Car Capitol of Canada at least. Insurance was so low.

The main drag used to be just that, a Drag Strip. We would park at a McDonalds and watch the line of Hot Cars cruising.

We used to have 2 car lots. 999 Auto Sales. There, they sold old and tired out Hot Cars and Hot Rods. I used to walk thru the lots and drool on them. Never did get one tho. Probably just as well, as I was a speed demon and amassed enuff Tickets with just my own cars. And I wasn't a mechanic. I would have been breaking these things more than driving them.
