An update on the beach boys song "shutdown"

Wow. I was a Beach Boys nut as a kid and never knew the story behind the song. I would give an arm to go back to the 60,s. The music, the cars, the way 1 salary was enough to live on. My dream job would be working on engine designs for Chrysler, V-8 of course. What would your dream job be if you had a time machine?
