Boy, does that bring back the memories. There you'd be at a stop light and
you push the gas to the floor and...well....you oozed across the intersection. It was very much like the early CVT transmissions of a few years ago. The sound was very characteristic. I think things were a little better by 53 because they had started to deal with that problem by then but it sure was no Hydramatic! max "Dave Moorman" > wrote in message ... > In article <0hBAh.65893$Fd.18729@edtnps90>, > Max wrote: > >> begin 644 1953 Buick Roadmaster Sedan-blk-sVr ventiports=mx=.jpg > > You can hear the Dynaflow wining! > > Dave |

I would say which car was a Buick by the sound of the Dynaflow. It was such a snap but mystified many teachers. Dave |

The grade school was actually in Lake Villa and is known as Pleviak School, I believe. The intersection was IL 21/83 (at that time) and IL 132. We moved to Antioch when I entered high school. I've heard of Trevor and knew it was up there somewhere close. Where is it, exactly? Dave |

Don't blink as you pass through, cause you'll miss most of Trevor :-) I actually live in a very small subdivision of Center Lake Woods (5 streets), which is between Center and Camp Lakes. John |

When in high school a friend and I would ride our bikes up to Rock Lake to visit an elderly ham radio operator. Never got as far north as Center or Camp Lakes. We get up that occasionally, and I'll have to drive through Trevor. Dave |

They also made big changes at Rock Lake. Give a holler > and I'll make sure I've got some cold ones in the fridge :-). John The changes are remarkable. I graduated from ATHS in 1960 and worked at the Jewel when it was on Lake Street - 428 (?) Lake Street - but it's been out at 59 and 173 for decades now. I entered Pleviak School in fourth grade, when it was Lake Villa Grade School. The "new" wing opened up after I'd been there a month or so. Looking at Google Earth - the old section is gone and replaced with another new wing. Dave |
