Larry, I've really enjoyed the Arizona pictures. In 1961, I was stationed at an Air Force radar station, on a mesa over looking route 66 , a few miles west of Winslow. I spent a lot of time in the desert around there. Carried a 44 magnum most of the time when I left the base. Even wore it when I went to the bank. But, I had to check it with the bartenders. LOL. Test drove an Airman's 61 Corvair 4 speed down the winding road off the mesa and west on 66 to the trading post. I was hooked. In 62, when we got back to Florida, I bought the first Corvair family/race car. The rest is history.... Tom.
