Default Re: tell a Model A related story

In the late 1960s my parents frequented a small store called D&W's, which was located about a block from our house. My father, who owned a 1937 Ford at the time, knew the store owner Wally. Wally had a 1929 Model A Fordor sedan. Sometimes he would drive it to work and park it in the grass field adjacent to the small store.

One day we went to the store and Wally was closing up. When we were done with our business in the store Wally left his wife in charge and gave me and my dad a ride in the Model A Fordor. The seats were nice and the car was in perfect shape. My first ride in someone else's antique auto. Fifty years ago and I remember it still.
