I’ll never forget the one car I
lusted for in High School.
I was a lowly sophomore at suburban HS in Houston TX. Me and my geeky friends were standing in the parking lot before school, trying to look cool. Then I saw it.
A 1963 Chevy Impala Super Sport convertible slowly prowled into the parking lot, the V-8 with that unforgettable rumble sound. We all looked, stared, hoped and fantasized. The twin flags and badging on the sides. White on the outside, red seats. A senior was driving. He had a gorgeous well-endowed blond sitting in the other front bucket seat. I could never decide which was more beautiful … the Chevy or the blond. I leaned toward the car,
At that moment, I realized life is unfair. I would need to work to achieve my dreams. I never did get the Chevy but some years later got a customized, hi performance Mustang convertible which I loved too.
But I’ve never forgotten that Chevy.
