Saw a page that asked what to bring back from the 70's

 My response is cars before they put computers in them and plastic bumpers that are $10,000 to replace.  Those old metal chrome bumpers could take a hit and still look brand new. My dad had a Chrysler 300 special from (I wanna say 1962) that had a bench seat in front and a add on A/C that got the car so cold you could almost store what's in your fridge if the power failed.  At that time I was a teenager and that car was basically mine.  It was a very hot day in Riverside, CA and he borrowed the car to go shopping.  By the way it had a huge trunk.  They left about noon said be back in a few hours.  After six hours I started to worry.  It was pushing midnight when they got home.  Said a red little sports car ran a red light and plowed into the side of the car.  Dad said the driver was killed and the car was demolished.   Checked that 300 and it had a very small crease in the door with red paint . Those are the cars we need to get back too.  The old military trucks would be great too.
