Yup, that's about right, Paul - maybe even a year or two earlier

I had the CB in my 1970 Mercury Cougar with a 351 Cleveland that I used to drive to Florida - and that old girl flat ass flew

Had to keep an eye out for Smokey, ya know...

The guy who tuned it up for me was a former pit mechanic at Daytona - at 110 she still had a lot of pedal left but the suspension was too soft to drill it all the way

Damn, every time I hear the Allman's Southbound I think of that good old girl on the road to FLA...

Boy, talk about livin' in the past...
"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.
