David Wallace, 51, an executive at Oracle living in Grosse Pointe, Mich., and his daughter Honor Wallace, 16, on their 1973 Volkswagen “Thing,” as told to A.J. David Wallace: My father-in-law went to the University of Oklahoma in the sixties. He had a close friend from Texas who was a University of Texas alum. Oklahoma won the Red River Showdown that year, and my father-in-law won this Volkswagen Thing. I always wondered what he put up—what he would have lost if Texas had won.
