I remember one on my Grandfather's 1958 Oldsmibile. That was the year he passed away at 55 from a brain aneurism from Diabetes. He loved to hit one hill on the road home that would get us airborne for a split second and watch us come up off the seat.
Grandma always made him stop in the mountains so she could get on the side of the car where she could not see over the side of the mountain.
He once got a ticket for 62 in a 60 zone. The cop clocked him with radar in 1957.
