Are we on a car slide? :-) Yay!

I loved reading about all the old car experiences :-)

- long slide post following . . .

My dad bought a 1965 Mustang in .. 1965. He gave it to me when I started driving, 1973. Gave it to my son when he graduated from high school, he sold it to his sister a long time ago. It’s been sitting in the back of my husband’s shop for 15 years. My dad kept asking if we were going to restore it because he would like to ride in it again. (He’s 89)

My son in law moved it out of my husband’s shop without daughter knowing it, and had it completely restored and surprised my daughter with it on their 20th anniversary in October. She cried and said she had been so afraid my dad, her grandfather, would not get a chance to ride in it again. So we drove it over to his town and she took him for a ride.

When this quarantine is over we are going back because he wants to have some more pictures made with it.

Sorry for the long slide addition - I love old cars and old car stories :-)

I posted a day or 2 ago that POTUS hair was gray instead of blond. It’s back to blond today.

Didn’t anyone else catch this?? It has to mean something! (because his actions always mean something.) Such a noticeable thing! JMO.

My first car was a 75 Merc Cougar. Everything below the body molding was bondo. Curb weight must have been 6k lbs. Top speed 109 mph. Scary!
