I wonder how this encounter would shape you as a white child during these pivotal moments in history… I hope they understand how lucky they were and cherish this memory.

Those 10 year old dusters etc... were plentiful and relatively inexpensive at the time. I don't think it was really considered a "sports car" at the time though with an investment it could be made pretty sweet. Mustangs, Camaros, Cudas, GTOs. Those were the in demand cars at the time.

Pretty cool, right? They spent a week in Florida and apparently were such impressive teenagers (unique & funny, too, traveling in a hearse) that a letter was written to his local MO newspaper from someone in FL, telling them how they were great kids.

It almost looks like the dude sitting in the back of the hearse has a laptop computer. Is that Marty McFly?

It was a different time in 1965, that’s for sure. This was bought from a junkyard.

I'll give it 1 day until somebody identifies this intersection exactly and provides a modern street view image.

It's so weird to me that in 2023 people would rather look at these pastel monstrosities than befoul their eyes with (gasp!) a black and white photograph.

Same, but a '73. Mine died when it chucked a connecting rod.
