Default Getting the youngins interested in Model A's

I have a neighbor who's daughter is getting married. They asked if they could use one of my Model A's as a "Save The Date" wedding announcement photo. Beautiful day and we had so much fun posing with props such as cranks, and tire pumps....

Very nice couple and I think I am getting them hooked on the Model A hobby. They were so interested in my cars and were impressed with how much my family does with them. I planted the seed now and it will just take time to see how it blooms...

Modela......don't bank on it ! They may have been wowed on their wedding day but the reliability of their Japanese (?) family car may win the day? However, I hope I'm wrong and there's another couple of barners on the horizon !

I can't see the photos. Sometimes when people post pics, it shows to me as a link and when I click on it, it says I'm not logged in or not allowed access. I'm sure they are great photos.

That is one reason I do the shuttle service at the Gatsby event in the fall. People get to ride in Barbara and I even handed out some club business cars because of it.

It worked Mitch. Thanks. Hopefully I won't have to do that every time.

Pgerhardt- I'm always logged in but when I would click on those links that's when it would kick me off. But now I know I just might have to login again.
