Default Lost my mind!

For the past four years I have sold off a bunch of cars with
the exception of my Cadillac and my Model A. Last week I was offered
a deal I couldn't refuse on the Caddy, so color it gone. My reason
for doing this is because a dealer would not give me anything for the
Caddy, so now I am down to one car until I find my next new car. With
only the "A" in my garage some of my non A friends think I have lost my
mind. My thoughts are that they just don't understand!

Ok,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,I will start by being the first on the list if you sell your A.
Sorry, just had to say that.
Hey just do what makes you happy and if they dont understand,,,,,,,,,oh well.
I guess if you can read this, then you havent lost your mind. Good luck. Mark.

No! You would have lost your mind if the Caddy was in the garage and you sold the "A"

One early January, we had a rather significant snowfall. I couldn't resist and put my long stored chains on the back of my "beater" '29 Murray Town sedan. It was great driving the car around the neighborhood before the plows cleared all the drifts. While I was gone, one neighbor lady called my wife to say that I could be seen making the snow fly with the old car. "Is Gar alright?" the lady asked. Gar Williams

It sounds to me like you sold the right car.

Cars are like women, you just have to keep the one that strikes your fancy. She don't have to be pretty or smart but as long as she suits you.

I think any and all of us who muck around with old cars are totally insane and out of our minds. It must be true 'cos my wife tells me that all the time!
