Does any one remember this Chevelle?

From quarterly-report.com March 23, 2000: .....an all time record high of $1.53 per gallon. In a recent analysis of spiraling fuel costs, the DOE predicted that gasoline could reach $2.00 by the summer. In Nevada, gasoline is already $1.80 a gallon."

$1.80 a gallon. Those were the good old days!

That report seems a little odd as I clearly remember the shop I was at in 1977 on the front page of Newsday reporting we were the the first to hit $1.50 with everyone following and it was climbing then.

Really picture.....thanks to Dave for submitting and to Bruce for posting

I see the road sign for Alt. 19 at the intersection in the background. I remember that Alt. 19 was (or perhaps still is?) the main north - south road through the Gulf Coast towns of Tarpon Springs, Clearwater, and St. Petersburg. My grandparents lived just south of Tarpon Springs back in the 60's, but I don't recall any drag strips in the vicinity.....they may have been farther inland.

It is also one of those color-coded signs Florida used to dstingiush direction and destination !
