I'm gonna buy me a Mercury

It's the 1920s and you're one of the few in the neighborhood to have a car. Life is grand. This is the future!

It's the 1950s and the carhops are popping up everywhere. You go for a cruise listening to the Beach Boys... What do you want to do tonight? The drive-in? Split a milkshake with your girl? It doesn't matter, life is great. You have a sweet ride!

It's the 1960s and life is awesome. Elvis is King of Rock and Roll and now the movies. We're sending people to the moon. And you have a car that will someday be a classic!

These cars from years past all scream out stories to me as I pass them in the parking lot of Bob's Big Boy.

  1. I love this use of cars to create a cultural memory. Nicely done!
