rank | Mon Dec 02 23:39:16 2019 the Navy 55 years ago today at Treasure Island. Bought a 54 Chevy and drove that home to Pennsylvania. It burned 3 qts. of oil per tank of gas. made it to Bakersfield Calif. and had two lifters and push rods replaced. That got it running on 6 cyl. Had a thermostat put in in Memphis to get heat. Replaced the generator in Roanoke Va. and made it to Bristol Pa the next day. What a ride. I needed that after a year and half on Midway Island. |
