Paul of Covington Overmod Lest you think the idea lacked attraction, consider the ineffable Nash Metropolitan Back in the mid 1970's, a friend had a Nash Metropolitan which became his son's car when he went to college. The son was surprised to find that the car was a real chick magnet.

Back in the mid 1970's, a friend had a Nash Metropolitan which became his son's car when he went to college. The son was surprised to find that the car was a real chick magnet.
Used a Metropolitan to pass my drivers test on my second try. I failed the first attempt at parallell parking dad's 19.9 foot Chrysler 300 in a 20 foot parking space. The Metropolitan was much easier to fit into the 20 foot parking space.

I drove a Henry J about 160 miles one day in July of 1959. It belonged to an elderly couple (friends of the family) who were on their way to their summer home in Montreat, N.C.

Not to throw more ga on the fire, but in the April edition, the caption states, "Virginia will spend x M illions ..." and right below in the first sentence of the story is B illions. I understand it's an easy mistake to make, but how many people looked at the page as a whole during editing?
