And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two?

Dear Automakers, Would it be possible for you to create automobiles with modern safety features like crumple zones, airbags, collapsible steering columns and the like while still making vehicles look elegant and stylish? Everything today looks cheap and plastic (probably because it is) and I long for the auto styles of yesteryear. See '59 Caddy, '58 Imperial, etc.
I was thinking along the same lines,,,'57 Chev V8...lighter with modern computerized ignition(for extreme mileage)...with a backup std ignition(when the 'idiot engine light' lights up)! Beauty/power/mileage...What's not to like?!
What a beaut!
ReplyDeleteI'll take it!
