My life in Finland!

In Finland biggest old car meet/pick-nick is Forssan pick-nick. Every year about 2500-3000 cars in show area
That's a good size show there! I'll have to ask my buddy Martin over in Sweden if he ever makes it over there with his 66 Charger... I know he really gets around.
 
Was the same in Iowa in 72 when I got mine at 16.
The cool thing about taking summer driver's ed was the fact that they had 67 Plymouth Belvederes and I had access to the 66 Belvedere of my dad's so I knew all the points of the car for parking etc. The down side is that I didn't have any way to get to the school so dad said to just take the car but don't get caught. Had to park it out of the way just in case the driver's ed teacher saw it but he saw it anyways. He just said don't get caught lol
 
We got shackled with a 70 Chevy 4 door Chevelle 454. That was before I knew what real power was.
 
I took driver's ed in a 73 Buick Lesabre with a 455, how we ended up with that car I don't have a clue. I'll say one thing and that's when you learn to parallel part in a big car you can park anything.

I had two hours of training in a Geo Metro two door hatchback. Guy hated my driving, but I got the required amount to take the test. I still remember diving into a cloverleaf off ramp at 65 and the instructor stepping hard on the brakes, I scared the crap outta him! I had one later on, and it loved being thrown into corners!

I don't drink the stuff. But have seen the truck in TV adds. Other than that really means nothing to me.
 
I understand your text just fine, a lot of coke trucks on the road I don't really pay attention to them.
