my first prom "vehicle" was a 1949 ford that used more oil than gas, no heater or radio or back seat for that matter. flat head 8 hitting on at least 6 and had to park on a hill so i could roll down it to start. I used "beach" towells to cover up the seats. it was two different shades of blue and rusted out from the passenger door back to the bumper plus it was missing one rear shock and i was using a piece of bailing wire to hold up the piece of pipe that i had fabricated for an exhaust system. we made it to the prom and back (5) miles one way and she never complained. must have been my charming personality.
