46 woodie Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 Man , I'm giving away my age, but I remember reading a comic book featuring "Kookie". He was dating a Russian spy and picked her up for dinner in the Hot Rod and she thought it was a tractor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
