This 2023 holiday season, we again present our yearly column on the dangers of drinking and driving. Further, we again this year bring to light the condition of the tires that many collector car owners usually take for granted. There are those owners who buy a muscle car from the 1960s and don’t give serious attention to the tires, which are probably many years old, yet still look good. So, don’t try making a quarter-mile run. It is a muscle car that is riding on tires that are 25 years old.

When December rolls around each year I prepare for my month of holiday feature columns, the first this week about the fun and significance of cruising under all the brilliant Christmas holiday lighting displays in every city and town, USA. Add in each person’s personal lighting displays, and you are ready to be transported into a world of magical love, peace, and goodwill towards men.

How Ford’s female workforce helped win WWII Q: Greg, I was at the recent Guthrie Clinic and Robert Packer Hospital veterans dedication event that you attended on Nov. 10. I overheard you discussing with our County Commissioners the Ford-assembled B-24 Bombers, the female workforce, and especially that you said they were built in less than an hour. As a veteran, I would like to know more about it.

Q: Greg, I enjoy all your car nostalgia columns, especially those you write about from the 1950 and 1960 decade. I am your age, 74, and remember you’ve written that most of the cars were well designed back then. I also remember in Auto Roundup magazine you did not like the General Motors 1958 cars but did like Chryslers. Why so? Frank Lorden, Chicago, Illinois. A: Frank, the reason I liked the Chrysler family is because starting in 1957 all Chrysler cars were uniquely designed and quite good-looking.

Renault deal was deathblow to AMC Q: Greg, I appreciate your nostalgia car articles as they bring back fond memories. I’m glad AMC made your recent Top 10 Muscle Car list with the wild little 390 American Scrambler back in 1968. However, as AMC failed as a car company, where do you feel AMC took the wrong turn? I feel it was when they got into an agreement with Renault. How about you? Some of the Renault cars were good, others not so good.

hey @ericstepp17!@ericstepp17 one of the very biggest problems is that NASCAR still owns the charters. Here's a column I did way back in January. https://t.co/jph2RYDFrH
