Let’s call it “testing.” I grew up right at 12 Mile Road and Woodward Avenue which was in the middle of everything happening in Big Three cars. Woodward was the main thoroughfare in Detroit. It was the place where all the Ford, Chrysler, and Chevy engineers would converge in the evenings showing off their wares.

If you go back in the history of this area you know that the rise of the muscle car happened on Woodward Avenue. Famous guys like DeLorean would show up out there and play off each other. Friday night they’d be out on Woodward Avenue testing and having a little fun.

Have you ever heard of the “Silver Bullet” car? That was Jimmy Addison’s car. He had a Sunoco station at 14 Mile and Woodward( Spehar's old one). We all used to hang out at Jimmy’s station. And Dave Kanners, who was Rich Maskins’ partner on the Maskin-Kanners AMC-Hornet. He had a station at 13½ and Woodward.
