Not 'Upper Middle", but at least "Middle Middle" ...
Most folks (including my parents) did not have a clue as to what a Porsche was back in the day! Think about it! The Japanese "Invasion" was just beginning (i.e. Pat's story), and there really was no comparison between a 1970's 911 and a 1970's Corvette, for example... We were that strange fringe group that hung onto the edges of the SCCA, just because... when the real racers were driving Boss 302's and Z/28's! But even at 35 cents per gallon,. I had to watch my fuel consumption back then, so a 914 made more sense than a 454 Vette! Especially when the '74 Gas Crisis rolled around! |
