    The doubled cord was held up tight in the hands to keep the cans on the bottom of the kid’s shoes.

    The “walkie-talkie” tin cans had a single string tied into the center bottom of the cans. And they actually did carry voice sounds to the other can at the end of the line.

    Yep, it is bad enough having a dashboard computer screen in my standard ICE Honda sedans.
    I haven’t even sat in my youngest son’s Tesla Model Y yet. Did offer to give him some AA Energizers for backup though.

    Bet you’d love to have your Camaro now, wouldn’t you?
    My oldest son has had his ‘69 for at least 15 years now. He might get it out on the road once or twice a month.

    That may be the only way they can get rid of them. Hertz had then for $18,000 with little or no miles on them.

    I had a 68 Camaro, blacker than black, it was real pretty. I always wanted a 69, I liked the lines better. Mine was an RS, had them headlight windows that opened and closed when they worked properly.

    My son’s ‘69 is an RS, but he removed the headlight windows because they just wouldn’t work properly half the time.
    Thanks for setting me upright, and for the pic below.
    Here’s the original interior with some seat covers he added when he first bought it from his cousin.

    I always wanted a 69, too.

    Oh wait, you mean a car.
