    I saw this today

    My dad had a 1957 Packard Clipper . Ours was 2 tone white/gray. Had a Studebaker 289 with supercharger 2bbl carb and push button transmission grey and white in color We also had a 1955 Packard Patrician black and white in color. Tried to post photos but wouldn't accept them.

    That’s a sixty-six Mercury wagon in the pic. I had to work 45 minutes to buy a gallon of gas at a minimum wage of one dollar per hour.
    At $7.25 per hour and at $4.00 per gallon I work fewer minutes for the same gallon.

    In 1966 I made 35 cents an hour

    I was going by the federal stats and the sign prices; in sixty-six it took me about ninety coke bottles for a quart of oil and six gallons of gas to fill the tank for an outboard.
