Update: Thanks to Dan P. who correctly identified the Plymouth with truck running gear.

Update 2: Eric says that’s a ’74 Nova in the back. Good eye.

My Girl Sloopy, The Vibrations (1964) The Jayhawks recorded the hit Stranded In The Jungle in 1956, changed their name to The Marathons, and eventually became The Vibrations. The McCoys’ 1965 cover (retitled Hang On Sloopy) is the better known, and The Yardbirds’ version is just awful. Now about Dottie Sloop
