As a child I remember my brother getting in trouble for throwing his shoe  
out the back power window, and off the trunk. LOL

I was  amazed at that car. A jeweler I did work for in Knoxville, Iowa (We 
made the  Knoxville National Sprint Car Championship rings 8 years in a row 
for him) had  one is his garage with only a few thousand miles on it. I 
never saw it, but he  talked about it a lot. This is the first time I had seen 
one. Amazing car.

My family had one of the first 57 Mercury Turnpike Cruisers. It was  black 
like the one you saw, but a 4d.
They bought one of seven cars originally made for the Auto shows. These  
cars were showing all that Mercury had to offer, and were not for sale. But  
money talks and they got one.
  I never knew this story until after the car was gone, and they  keep it 
for 15 years.

I  worked the entrance of the car show last night downtown. I DID browse 
the  show with the camera though. Here is a link to a hundred or so of my  
favorite shots.

Hopefully we raised some raffle money for  the Car Club at the school.
