    My lip stayed busted back in those days and that one was a gusher. Suffice it to say, I never stood up in the front seat again.

    Remember when there was a bench-style front seat in cars? You could make out in the front seat back in those days without being uncomfortable.

    Not if you had a Nash Metropolitan. We had a 1948 Studebaker. That long front seat wasn't very long.

    I think that's a US model [[Land Cruiser). We had a Canadian model of The Land Cruiser [[pictured below). It had a small vent window in the back seat, and didn't have the front window separation plate. The grille was different, as well.

    This is the first car I remember as a very young boy. It's also the one that taught me that valuable lesson. I'm going to buy one some day.
