Bill bought this gorgeous 1957 Mercury Turnpike Cruiser in 1987. Here’s more about it. When Bill and his wife were buying a new house, he made sure the garage was big enough for this behemoth before even looking inside the home.

The Beatles Tribute band, American English performed to a great crowd. Here are 1957 and 1959 Oldsmobiles at the event, which bookend the 1958 Olds 98 my mother had (not pictured)

The first car I remember in my family was mom’s black 1958 Oldsmobile 98. This car, loaded with chrome, was a less luxurious model. Disco group the 7Dees performed.

This Tempest is very much like my first car. Mine had a red interior and four-on-the-floor. This car used a four cylinder version of the well renowned Pontiac 389 V-8 and had a rear mounted transaxle.
