That's what I was expecting.


The new Oldsmobiles are in early this year.

"Look! Pier 1 Imports! Man, this mall's got everything!"

I appreciate it guys!
Hey Coaster, that's cool. Small world! How long ago was that?
When I was in college in the early 90s, there were several TR6s floating around campus. I loved them, but heard too many scare stories.

I used to drive from Okmulgee, OK to Crossroads Mall (about 100 miles) in the late 70's - early 80's. There was a hobby shop in there that was well stocked with slot cars and model kits....better than what I could find in Tulsa (40 miles away). Good times....

Oh man, I know the hobby shop you're talking about! Can't remember the name, but I haven't found one as cool since! We probably ran into each other there at some point. Best model kit selection ever. There was also a toy shop in there called Toys By Roy..... I believe? They had glass case displays of all the corgi toy cars including the rare 1:18 scale Bond Aston with the functional gadgets, and full catalogs of all of the available HO scale train accessories.....
Sigh. All gone.

LOL! Are you saying they made 1980s-era GM cars look good? (Not by much)
Then again, without them, we wouldn't have the Miata MX5. The British sports car that works.
