Yes I do and it is still the same as now since my parents still live there. How about I dig out another phone number from back in those days. 313-284-2661. This was the phone number of A) the president of our Class Council and we needed to call that number different times while we were building our AWARD WINNING FLOAT. And B) OK so I had a crush on Tracy (the aforementioned president) who lived at that number. I never did call her however but I burned that number into my mind. Pitty, waste of good brain cells.

I believe it was a light yellow 1970 Mercury Marquis. I had it for a few months than got a hand me down probably 1968 Plymouth Valiant with a V8.
