I cut lawns for an entire summer to save up for this Norco MX bike. Price was 120 bucks...in 1973. I was the coolest kid on the street.

 I had the Scramble Van too (with the ramp on the back).   I must have tried 10,000 times to hit that ramp like they did in the commercial.

A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.

Looks like Dan is living up to his namesake's image with his toy collection.  The first Grumpy had some badazz Toys.  Here is one that is appropriate for Larry's car
