They were quite a few really good companies that dropped out I moved out here 45 years ago and my memory is fading. Probably why I don’t remember them, but they’re starting to ring a bell.

Wound up moving 60 miles away though that’s the way it works in LA. Everything is so expensive down there. You have to move far away from town to afford anything. It’s pretty much the same way everywhere now though. -

That’s excellent. I did have three jobs as a teenage kid that were within a mile of my house. I had one trucking job in LA. That was very close as you said just a few minutes. Sure, makes it nice. -
I read somewhere in 66 they continued the manufacturing the B model on account of they had so many parts they needed to use up a bunch of them… so people were probably getting a really good deal on the last years model at that time
