Yup. Growing up in the Motor City area in the 60s was great. The sub we lived in was full of auto execs from the big three. Most had new company cars every year. Couple of big time Chrysler stylists that brought home show cars. I got my license in 70 and cruised Woodward with a few of the muscle cars dad brought home. Get caught racing one of those cars and you get kicked out of the co. car program. Woodward by then was mostly cruising for chicks for eight miles. 11 mile to Square Lake and back. We cruised in anything from a Road Runner, Duster, New Yorker, Colony Park wagon to Coupe deVille. Like American Graffiti x 1000.
I spent a lot of time cruising the "Lynch Road Lot" when i finally had dough to pick up a deal on a co. car turn-in. That lot kept the cleanest low miles cars for employees family to purchase. Most were loaded cars. Dads cars were often "tagged" before he turned them in. They were usually well optioned and very clean. I think i paid $2,300 for a 75 Dart Sport. A loaded slant six car with enough options it needed two window stickers.
Boy, this thread brought back memories!
