My first car (hand me down)
Headlights and grill held in by wire
Trunk closed with a padlock attached to two eye hooks drilled into trunk and bumper (back then bumpers were steel)
Blech covered hole in the floor by drivers seat (floor was eaten away by rust) you had to make sure not to drive over puddles or you got wet. I always carried a spare change of clothes.
It goes without saying no a/c
Passenger door didn’t open bc of past accident.
Final straw was when reverse went out.
Ah
The good old days when you could hand your mechanic a $20 to get an inspection sticker
