"The rusty wire that holds the cork
That keeps the anger in,
Gives way
And suddenly
It's day again...

As found at Bolte's Service Center on Main Street. a 1952 Buick Super. $2475 when new, with 2 speed "Dynaslush" and a smooth running, low compression "straight-eight" with 124HP.

Wow, the wingtip vortices, and the southwest skies. Beautiful.
