a bunch of us teenagers chipped in and bought an old car from some neighborhood guy on 179th street for $25. we were sorta taken advantage of. only elliot had a driver's license. never registered or insured (what's that?) the car broke down on its maiden voyage to orchard beach on pelham parkway. i wasn't even there. didn't even get a ride for my share ($5). for all i know the car is still on pelham parkway. the guys just walked away. walked home of course.
