Oddly enough, Charley, the young blond concertina player, who used to play at the Press Room sessions, drove the Ducks(DUKWs)in Boston for a couple of years. They weren't really stock as the engineering tools had mostly been removed, the adjustable tire pressure hub devices had been deactivated, and most had only one rear axle driven. To top this off they were all painted many different pastel colors, to match the color of the sun awnings. A great ride for a fair price, but can you imagine tooling those great barges around the narrow streets of the North End? Dave
