Once in awhile-now and again-this is us

oh  my  goodness. there were hundreds of them.  every make, color and size.  mostly fords and mercurys.  and as the saying goes,  for everything made, there is someone who collects it.

a lot of work goes into restoring some of them. would you even have started to restore this one? and it only took a year???????

the finished product

there were big ones

and little ones

unusual ones

awwwwah

this one is classy

didn’t you have a morris minor jim?

jerry liked this one

i loved this grill

and this license plate

and this hood ornament

it was fun looking at all the cars and hearing their owners talk so lovingly about them. I know daryl rebuilt his grandfathers truck just as loving and thorough as they did. norm puts a lot of love into his cars too. our cousin jim likes the model t’s to work on and has two of them. men have that relationship with their cars. don’t we wish they looked at us the same way?

and them we had lunch

you could see the board walk

and hear the people scream as they were shot up to the top

stay tuned for more
