  Now that is a NewsFlight story!  You go George and I am with you.  I will take my 61 Newport with the factory 413 and dual carbs out for her first summer time gas this weekend and do a little "tire smoothing" myself.

    Today, I got the "J" running after a bit of electrical problems. Spit & sputter, backfire, cough! One and one half year old gas! Down to the Citgo station. Put the credit card in, opened the gas cap, which then rolled under the car, way, way under. Flipped the lever aND STARTED PUMPING IN "SUMMER GASS". 

    Finally got the "J" running today after some electrical problems. Cough, sputter, 4 cyls. running, backfire and ran like a Model "T". One and one half year old gas in the tank! Down to the Citgo station. Slipped in the credit card, took the cap off the fill pipe, which then rolled way, way under the car. Stuck the nozzel into the tank, started pumping premium (also adding a can of "OctaneBoost") fuel. Nineteen point 9 (19.9) gallons. Moved the "J" up to get the tank cap, installed. Went back to get the receipt. Opened the glove box door to record the purchase on my "fuel-mileage" pad. I was like putting my finger into an electric socket. Twenty (20) gallons at $4.269! Eighty five dollars and thirty eight cents ($85.38)..........at 12 miles per gal, conservativly, the way I drive, I just made the station's profit for the day. Made the wages for the two employees for the day. 
    Listening to the TV about summer gas prices, supposedly going over 5 bucks per gal, (thank you OPEC and Bushy baby) one has to consider traveling in these "BRUTES". Property and Income taxes may have to wait. Milk prices over 4 bucks a gal! Motor oil 3 1/2 bucks a quart, if it's any good for the car. 
    But what the heck, one only lives once. There is nothing like smelling tire "smoke" and rocketing down the road in a "beast", getting a glance of the cop that just "hit" you with the radar gun.
    At 78 years of age, the "kid" in me still lives. I see my neighbor has his Corvette out. Think I'll stop by and challenge him. Darn, another trip to the gas station!

    Hey, you all, just don't sit there and look at the 300, break the piggy bank and borrow some of your kid's college fund, have some fun, safely.
