Memory Lane

The Motor City was rockin. Chevy's were sharp, clean and "cool man cool". Candy Apple Red or Canary Yellow were the coolest colors to have. The cars were great for necking or like they use to say, watching the submarine races, at the end of Kerchival, by the St. Clair River. One of my many jobs was carhop. I made .25 cent an hour plus tips. Take home at the end of the night was $20.00. The last song of the evening was can you remember? "Good Night My Love". 12 o'clock midnight. We all went home after the music stopped. The name of the Drive Inn was "Cupid's Drive Inn". In those days there were more guys than girls. It was just like the movie, "American Graffiti". Cruisin all the drive Inn's. Looking for loving. Those were the days my friend. 1957, 1958, 1959, 1960, 1961, etc.
