    station wagons: 1957-90...

    My Favorite Two Wagons... I owned this wagon briefly in 1973 : 1968 Caprice Estate with a 427. It got about 6 feet to the gallon but Jeez was that thing fast. Gas was also around 40-50 cents a gallon then. My best friend in High School's Mom had a 1970 Buick Electra Wagon with the 455...

    Where's the Beef????

    Yes Rick... The premade market is very scary. God only knows what ConAgra and other "WCI" food manufacturers have up their sleeves during this Orwellian Nightmare. There is that old saying... "If you can't pronounce it, it should not be in your pantry or on your plate".

    Cooking oil questions.

    I would say Peanut Oil for Deep Frying. Olive oil does not have that great of a smoke point and might be expensive. I have been using Avocado Oil lately for pan frying. Really High Smoke point. Personally, I stay away from Vegetable Oils and Canola. GMO crap.

    Soon to be owner of Kitchenaid KDS-18

    Check the Sump where the heating coil goes through the tank. Remove the Wash Arm, Filter and see if there is any rust around the element and tank. These are such great machines, but that rust can ruin the tank/sump. Other than that... Good Luck. I hope you get it.

    Free Garland commercial stove

    Garland Cafe Range. Definitely a work horse. Standing Pilots. 3 for the Burners 2 for the Ovens and 3 for the Griddle Broiler. Your kitchen will be warm 365. That's in Great shape for it's age. My guess would be at least 30-40 years old.

Ours was a Non Filterflo but...

    Fashions - Wandering back to the 1970s

    Although my Mom would never allow me to wear fashion like that, I truly blocked it out and forgot about H.I.S. Mom always dressed me "Preppy". Button down Oxford shirts, Khakis, or Slacks, Loafers, etc. I wanted Boxer shorts but she would only buy me "Tighty Whiteys". And never Atheletic...
