“At the sign of the cat!” (Arkansas car wash home movie, 1978)

Slice-of-life time. Here’s a brief home movie from “taratupa73” filmed at a car wash fundraiser on a hot summer’s day in Little Rock, Arkansas.

The film is simply two minutes of some folks at a Gulf station washing a 1970 Mercury Cougar XR-7 but it brings back memories of the era. I thought you might enjoy it, as I did. Do note that during the entire length of this movie not a single teenager took a selfie or sent a text. Is this a good or bad thing? I don’t know, but times-they-shore-has-changed.
