Was Sunoco a regional brand? Because I don't remember ever seeing a Sunoco station back when I could have really used it. (To be honest, I don't think I've ever seen an actual Sunoco station in person.) We all went to Texaco and paid like 57 cents a gallon for the premium "good stuff." No gas was too expensive for our race cars! We were such big spenders! ROFLMAO!

Oh, and you never put more than a quarter of a tank in on race day, or you'd be too heavy and end up wallowing like a hog on the starting line. AFTER the races, we went and filled up.

I loved to build models when I was a kid
they sure didn't cost nearly that much

LOL! Mine were black! I wore them with a long tunic top over them, and cute little short boots. I think I looked quite smart, actually.

No newspapers anymore? What are you supposed to put in the bottom of your bird and rabbit cages, then?

I used to put newspaper in the bottom of my rat's cage when I was a kid. She loved shredding it up.
