Sometimes, I was so jealous of Ron... I recall that he had a 1940 Ford Coupe - I later bought a 1940 Ford Delux but was no where near to condition of Ron's. Then, in his senior year, his parents bought a 1961 plymouth with cross-ram dual four barrel carbs. Now, that car was a manual trans with a high performance engine. And....... and, it was a convertible!!! That just blew me away!! Ron was genuinely a nice guy - smart, too. Thanks, Ron, for being a friend.
