About 1962 we went camping a couple hours down I-80. Coming home Dad and I in a 1957 Chevy 4 door pulling a 16-18 ft fiberglass boat with 75 horse outboard. Mom and brother leading in the 1963 Dodge station wagon pulling a small camper.

Chevy probably vapor locked. We are on the side of the interstate mom in front. We DO have lots of nylon ski rope! Rope around the axle of the camper to the 57 Belair.

Down the interstate we go. Station wagon pulling camper pulling Chevy pulling boat. After 5 miles or so Dad puts the Chevy automatic into gear and it starts! Took a mile to get mom to pull over so we could remove the ski rope!

We all survived!
