Thrill Hill

“We’re going to have

Fun, Fun, Fun

Till our Daddy takes the T-bird away!!!”

I HAD a T-bird when I was young. There was a road in Coconut Grove in Miami so steep that if you drove on it very fast, when it dropped off, your car would literally leave the ground and come crashing down a few yards further down the hill.

It was called Thrill Hill.

And sure enough one time I broke the axle.

“And I had had Fun, Fun, Fun till my Daddy took the T-bird away!”

T-bird

My T-bird was a big black one like this, not the really sporty little ones that came out for the first time in 1956
