'67 and '78 probably the worst. Might of been 3 sno-blowers in the whole city in '67. Not many 4-wheelers in '78. I had a '65 Bonneville w/posi for a winter car back then. She was a beast. Seats 7 and on dry roads not many could get past that 421. Miss that car. |

Actually I was still living in Mass at the time so it was '78. We didn't have school for a week and I can recall jumping off the roof of the house in to the snow.
