The letter dated March 22 , 1957 , The day after my Mom gave Birth to me the letter is talking about Pop Out Windows .
The Guy said that the windows were not yet for sale and not yet even in the Catalogs .

That's a cool one too, The one I was reffering to was about prices of VW's
VW Sedan $1616.70
VW Sunroof Sedan $1690.30
VW Convertible $2126.90
VW Station Wagon $2239.90
Can you imagine buying those brand new for that $$$ You can't even get a basket case for that kind of money.

What cost $1616.70 in 1956 would cost $12670.02 in 2008.
