Do you still own it, Jerry?
If so, I assume you've kept it in good condition – and maybe upgraded it a little. Even at only three percent inflation, after 44 years it should be worth at least $100 x 1.03
44 = $367, so take it to Durango, trade it for a ride to Silverton & back, and you'll have $110 left over for a fancy lunch at the Pickle Barrel
. . .
Or spend only $55 at the Pickle Barrel, and take your wife to dinner at El Palacio when you get home.
