   Some Oldsmobiles cars too. In the earlky 50's I got embarssed on a Date.   
   I was in the Navy stationed at Great Lakes Illinois and did not have a   
   car. I took the train up to Milwakee to visit a family I knew. The girl   
   borrowed her dads Olds so we could go on a date and she asked me to   
   drive. Being used to Chrysler, Ford and Pontiacs I could not find the   
   starter button.  :-(
