STOLEN cars in the "Chickie-Run"

They never said stolen but told Buzz 'look what we've got for ya' (or close to that). Stealing cars in the 50's, especially a bunch of kid like that, was a snap. Called 'hot wiring'.

When Jim goes home after the "Chickie Run" he tells his parents he was driving a stolen car.

for god sake why every body keep talking about high school when they say UNIVERSITY

They were n High School, University is the street the HIGH SCHOOL was on

Those cars were easy to start without a key. All you needed was to look behind the dashboard and jump across a couple of terminals on the back of the ignition switch with a short wire. Juvenile delinquents did it all the time. I stole the wheels off a parked car once, when I was sixteen. I just needed to borrow them for a few hours. When I was finished with them, I re-installed them on the parked car, and the owner never knew.
