Hell  with the shoe .... don't scratch the trunk!  It probably bounced 3 
times  before it cleared the thing.

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They bought one of seven cars originally made for the Auto shows.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.
