Well, you learn something new everyday. I guess green
was pretty popular. Ever wonder why most car lines
nowadays only offer 4 or 5 bland, uninteresting
colors?

Yes, because "avocado" is so much better than "Haze".
;) Makes me think of a 1970's washing machine we used

I'll agree with that last one. Its funny you mention
"The Formal Years"...I was looking out my window this
morning at my 67 coupe parked in the drive
(temporarily out of its garage, as I work on it in the

Stately years"...a 67 Imperial exudes class and

other car I can think of from that era.
