| Fixing "Smokey" |
I was watching "Running with Scissors" and this was one of the songs in the movie. It is definitely one of the epic songs from my teen years. I can't remember why but this song associated with Jan when we were kids.
I found an old picture from that era. That's Randy Underwood's old Corvair that we bought for $25. Grandpa Gus called it "Smokey" because of the way it burned oil. Actually, I don't think it burned it, it was most likely that the O-rings on the push rod tubes were leaking it onto the exhaust manifolds. A very common problem with Corvairs.
That is Gaylen Bodily facing the camera (and flipping the bird?). Still so sad that he is gone. (See my post from last year: 29-Mar-2017)
