Sort of tangential, but I was at an airshow with a number of our club's
M-151 vehicles in attendance, and by coincidence we were placed adjacent
to Chrysler Corp.'s display of a couple of very pretty TJ's.
Walked on over to check 'em out (before they were a common sight on our
streets), and became part of the audience enraptured by this salesman who
started extolling the virtues of "the revolutionary 4-wheel independent
suspension" as fitted "for the first time to a Jeep." I had a private
giggle, then told the fellow he might like to revisit his history a bit,
and have a look at one of our old green things which first motored their
way very independently indeed over the APG torture-test somewhere back
in 1957.
Don't know if he secured any clients that day - but I think we did!
