RE: Crusie-in

[62pluckedchicken@xxxxxxxxx]

I didn't expect attention for may car.. the interior is tattered, the 
dash pad is missing, could really use new paint,, in short not a show 
car..

I did think people might be a little more friendly.. and I could find 
out local resources for paint upholstery, hard to find parts..etc

I get more out of people when I go to the gas station, or grocery 
store.. Monday I was picking up a take-out pizza. and aguy started 
talking to me about his '65 T-Bird, I heard everything, from overheating 
problems, to the steering wheel swings out has its problems,but there a 
guy on 72nd & Maple that's a wiz with steering columns...

I guess that's what I was expecting
