How about tuck and roll, diamond tuft or button tuft, Four on the floor, Three in a tree, Cheater slicks, E/T mags, Wide Ovals.

Oh those small 6" stearing wheels the low riders used we called knuckle knockers.

Baby Moons, Offeys, Spinners or knock offs, 3 dueces or tri-power. Dually meant dual quads.

I guess I grew up a car nut.

Actually, we saw a 1996 Caddy that had "Curb feelers" on it. I haven't seen them in so long I had to be sure they were them. That was Friday the 15th. Maybe they are coming back in vogue.

We had a coworker a couple of years ago say something to her students about wearing thongs when she was a kid. Of course, she was talking about flip flops, as they are referred to now, but they had no idea that she was referring to foot wear and not underwear!!

Not trying to be crude, but i had titty bumpers on my 57 Chevy and i always raked the front and threw on a set of glass packs and extractors. slicked back my hair with a dab of brylcream, rolled my cigarettes up in my sleeve and picked up my steady girlfriend. was really cool when i got a set of dummy teardrops and a set of Cregar SS mags. put on my Chino's and wigeon loafers. HOT STUFF!
i can remember when it was cool to have store bought and we had a root cellar where we kept fruit etc. we still churned our butter and made our own ice cream.
our Church cloths were our best and Sat. night was spent polishing shoes and getting ready for Church on Sun.
