I slipped the tranny in my '66 Fairlane GT into neutral and must have fallen asleep, because the next thing I knew the sun woke me up and it was 6:00 AM in the morning. It took me a few seconds to get my bearings, but the motor was still running and I made it to class on time. Does that count ?
Interesting story, but IMHO, nope... doesn't count. (Don't 'cha wish you still had the '66 Fairlane GT??)

You betcha' - midnight blue 390 with a white convertible top; Holley 750 dbl. pumper on a Weiand alum. manifold; cherry bombs; and Cragars all around - but I digress
Wow! What a great car! Was interior white to match the roof?
No - it was medium blue vinyl to go with the exterior. The car's long gone 
, but I did manage to salvage the Grant wooden steering wheel I had on it.
