Ah yes…just thinking of this brings a smile to my face. We took all the seats out of my buddies Duster so we could lay down some speaker wire and some shag carpeting. It was July 4th and we were heading to the Boston fireworks that night. Well we ran out of time, and he was the only one with gas in his car, so we piled in to the car, sat him on a 3 legged stool, one of us got behind him and braced him with our knees. There were 4 of us counting the driver and this kid Scott who had his leg in a full cast. We rode down the highway hooting and hollering, bandanas on, listening to the Grateful Dead. We dropped firecrackers out the holes in the floor boards where the seat bolted down, while waving Scott’s crutches at passerbies. We did all the things your not supposed to do when driving, and didn’t even make much of an effort to hide it. It was the 70’s and things were a bit different back then. You can imagine some of the looks we got – Priceless!
Wait a sec..There was that time we stole the keys from a police cruiser (parked and idling outside the bank) and got caught on the banks video surveillance camera. The Officer got in so much trouble (we suspect) from his Chief, that all they did was call my friend and have him return the keys to the station.
We once drove from Worcester Mass to Providence, RI (about 45-50 miles) without steering by shifting our body weight from one side to the other to keep the car in its lane. (We had limited success at this).
Is there a limit to stories we can tell???
