That’s the summer that some horses pulling carriages in the FQ in NOLA died of heat exhaustion and the city outlawed horses and replaced them with mules or donkeys (they apparently do much better in the heat).

I worked as a lifeguard that summer making about $3.50. My brother worked blowing insulation for a homebuilder making 25 cents an hour less. He still resents me over that summer. 
My brother and I shared a 1963 Plymouth Belvedere around that time with no A/C. It had push button automatic transmission. I think my dad bought it used for $250.
