Robert Moses Causeway

When I was 22, I hated my Olds Cutlass. So I traded it in for a 1972 Firebird Trans Am. It cost all of $4400 brand new. 454ci V8 with a 4 speed Hurst Close Ratio shifter. Man, could that car go. But, I was 22, young and foolish. In February 1973, we had the first gas "shortage." I was getting 11 mpg. 88 miles round trip to work in the Bronx and a 16 gallon tank. That meant coming home on the second day on fumes. Bye, Bye Firebird. Ah, but what a car.
