There was a company next to TJ Ribs (can’t remember name) paying Chris Jackson for summer work and he showed up one day

In 1986 my wife worked for one of the largest donors of LSU (will not name him) and he had a LB (will not name him) working for him and his duties were to make copies and get the donors car washed. Had no idea what he was making but he was definitely getting taken care of.

300ZS by local Datsun dealers.
I think Bert J. drove a Lincoln in the early 70s

take one zero off your amount, and you might be close.
