Carson Time Capsule... Friday, May 7th.

In the time capsule today…

We find the introduction of the mood ring. Two New York inventors bonded liquid crystal to color changing quartz stones and set them into rings. The rings first retailed for a hefty $45.

We find Bob Chandler extensively modifying a Ford F-250 pickup truck to run with humongous tires. The vehicle was given the label “Monster Truck” and soon began wowing crowds in dirt filled arenas.
