The Cars

 

 

 

My Dad bought a 1976 AMC PACER from "Dan's You Like It, You Buy It" used car lot. My Dad said he liked AMCs' because they were a real American car. I thought the Pacer had "style" written all over it. The second day we had the car a man named Ed came to our house. He showed us his FBI badge and said he was a special agent. Special Agent Ed told my Dad the FBI had been watching "Dan's You Like It, You Buy It" for a couple of months. He told us that our Pacer was a stolen car and they were going to have to take it from us. Ed said Dan was crooked and the FBI was going to set up a sting. They asked my Dad if he would wear a wire and try to get Dan to talk. Ed said if we helped him then he would help us get a new car.
