Yes! I was just getting interested in autos when those babies were rolling around. Loved seeing the fog lights and white walls again...

Me too, Ralphy. I believe those were called gangster sidewalls. I actually painted them on my 37 Buick.

In the mid 70s I bought a 1963 Buick Lesabre, Compared to today’s cars it was a small yacht. The gas gauge was broke, no radio (I used my little transistor radio – remember those?) Good engine and tires. It had a few small dents, but it ran like a champ and I paid $150 cash for it (about $900 in today's dollars). That car it served me well, and I wish I’d kept it longer.
