Simple Minds- “Don’t you forget about me”.
My 1970 240Z. It was my third car.

When I first bough my former 71 Maverick it had a nonfunctional factory radio in it. I did some simple cleanup of the radio and reinstalled it, and the first thing I heard blaring out of the torn dash speaker was like a rhine stone cow boy

So now anything cowboy or ford related reminds me of that song. Does that count?

OL' 55 by Tom Waits when I had my 56 Chevy two door post. At the same time had a 70 deluxe microbus. The 56 was made the year I was born.

This one popped up in my head for some reason as a vivid memory of driving from St. Pete to Macon to visit my mother for Christmas when I was in high school when this song was popular. I was driving my 1982 Caprice Classic.

the Loser single album by Beck

Cruising party train in the 90's. Had my bug full of fellow idiots and a skipping CD boombox.

Last stop the California Aquaduct... Lots of booze, drugs and a skipping "Non-Skipping" boombox playing this Loser single CD all night.

Oh, the days before cellphone cameras... how I miss those days. We never had to video anything back in the day yet we still remember... kinda... even years and years later.

Sometimes its better not knowing what happened in full 1080p the next day.

So many cool things from Nash. Seat belts, unibody construction. Auto HVAC, and Mitt Romney’s Dad.

Not so much a car as a place and time... this always takes me right back to the boardwalk and amusement park at Manasquan Beach in NJ and childhood, listening to this playing on the crude outdoor "sound system" of lo- fi metal driver horns...

What a carefree time.
