In '72 I didn't make as much in a week as most folks do in day, but we still called it work. And the reason I posted is because I'm diligent. Or a dumass. I'll let you figure it out...
At this time, I had bought my first "modern" car, the 2nd Pinto ever sold in GA. 1.6 Kent engine. 4 speed. Stripped.
Dang I loved that car. Finally caught fire. Go figure..
Dang it, I missed 1972 AGAIN!
Here was my 4th new car. I had a family and had to quit racing. I quit cold turkey, or so I thought. I bought this "family sedan" Little did I know it would cream the Vettes of that day. My friend, of the Boss 302 fame, bought a new Vette and kept riding me about getting a family sedan. He was finally in a position to cream my car. One day while we were heading home he kept punching it and wanting me to race. So I finally gave in. My wife and I were amaze to go flying past him. That 4.5 was a nice engine.
I missed 72 also. Here's something else I should have kept. 
Too early for 74?
I've been accused of going off too soon more than once.

Yeah, so I can't post my Pinto yet. 
I'll be tearing it up once this gets into the 80's.
Waiting for 82. Can't miss 82. Somebody call me when 82 hits. Must. Remember. 82.
Yes!!!!! I caught page 69 in time and now 73.
My 73
The last year before the Mustang II
April 1973: Two World Trade Center is finished. The complex is officially dedicated with a ribbon-cutting ceremony.
Spa 1973
Holy crap, I had one of those evel knieval bikes but I wasn't born til 75. Hadn't thought of that in YEARS
That album spent the longest time in the Top 100 of any ever made, like 741 weeks from 1973 to 1988.
