Okay, okay, I wasn't going to, but since it hasn't
stopped, I'll share one good one with you.
After getting Jason's car back running, it had a
stater problem. Three weeks ago, he was about 30
miles away at Northern Illinois University visiting a
friend for the weekend. Of course the starter locked
up and I had to drive out to fix it.
I was under the jacked up car, loosening the starter
to break it free. There were literally hundreds of
students, parents and others walking past going to the
NIU football game a few blocks away. Of course there
were many comments about the car but the best part was
when a group of young boys walked past and one of them
said out loud "hey, that's a great looking 56". I
didn't see him from under the car, but Jason and my
wife both saw him and heard his comment also. My wife
was amazed that a college kid would know that it was a
"56". Of course, Jason just grinned and gave him a
"thumbs up".
Thought you'd like a "good" story for a change...(BTW,
I was 7 when the 1956 cars came out)
Joe and Jason
56 Belvedere (still hobbleing along with rearend
noise, and the starter from the Texas car (the rebuilt
one lost all it's teeth somehow and is being rebuilt
again for free)
