Back when I was a punk teenager I worked for a NAPA Auto Part store for about 6 months as a delivery driver. I would drive my 69 SS L78 Chevelle to work and then take the Chevette out for deliveries. To say I drove it like a rental is a gross understatement. Every shift was close to redline and I rarely hit the brakes as I downshifted to slow down. I beat the living daylights out of that poor thing and it never failed us or missed a beat. When I came back from runs I parked on a slight incline and the compression was so bad it wouldn't hold the car in gear. I had to apply the parking brake. I miss that little green Chevette but I miss more being a care free teenager without a worry or problem in the world.
