I remember going through Akron as a kid and the rubber factory smell was awful.

My dad was a NYC cop, and we owned a big house, but there was no money for a refrigerator and he wouldn't put it on the mortgage, (pay 30yrs), so we had an ice box. How different his values were back than when compared to today. Today you rent, and fill your apartment with junk. He owned, and wouldn't even finance a refrigerator.

So i remember the "ice man" with the big block of ice..................

Old enough to remember Dad driving 6-7 miles to my uncles house on Saturday nights, filling 3 milk cans with water, then watch "GUN SMOKE" on tv, ride back home and listen to the same "GUN SMOKE" episode on radio; unload milk cans (at least Dad did) 'bout all we could do was use the dipper once the water was in the house.....surely ya'll remember the dipper.....and there was always the path to the outhouse! By the way only I'm only 67

Model T from left to right clutch, reverse, brake plus the handbrake lever clutch neutralizer. The choke wire loop coming out of radiator next to the crank. What as the last year Ford V/8 with a crank slot in the front grill?

Longer if there was a show coming on that you really wanted to watch. :)

OH this cracked me up. I remember that. Especially on Saturday mornings waiting on cartoons. :lol:

62 - too old for buckhorn sights, but still young enough to turn the flywheel and start the old 1936 John Deere "A".....
