Ourfriend old red neck took his 32 ford to the new york meet, got a dearborn emeratus award; came home and took a tunble down the basement stairs, broke his colar bone, little finger, cracked his ankle, had some blood on his brain, now checking his knee, talked with him yesterday, will be in the hospital for about a week, then therapy, said he is doing pretty good; keep him in your prayers...thanks

Sorry to hear this. At my age, falling is probably my greatest worry. I moved to a seniors apartment complex where the biggest step is from the parking lot to the sidewalk (3", plus, there's ramp for that). I also added a second handrail to the stairs to the mezzanine in my shop.

Best wishes for his quick recovery.

Re: Old redneck
 

So sorry to hear Redneck. Get well soon my friend Thinking of you often.

Re: Old redneck
 

Saw him at the Clayton meet he looked great. I'm sorry to hear he fell. When we get older we've got to be careful with stairs, curbs, and every other darn thing. I hope he recovers soon.

Re: Old redneck
 

Hoping for a full recovery

Re: Old redneck
 

Ah, man. I'm sorry to hear that. I wish him a speedy recovery.

Re: Old redneck
 

Sorry, that happened, stairs are bad news.

Re: Old redneck
 

Wishing you a speedy recovery Ken! I was the black 3 window coupe parked next you at Clayton. Take care.

Re: Old redneck
 

So sorry to hear, congrats on the award. My friend always said, gettin old aint for sissies

Correct about stairs. We have to be force our thinking to watch where we are going. After my parents lived with us their final 3 years (in their 90s) my wife said were aren't doing that to our kids. This was when I was mid 60's. She wanted us to move to a senior community that starts with independent living and ends with memory care, if needed. At that time I could not wrap my head around that. Still have old car projects in the garage. Now at 71, I agreed that we could do it when I turn 80. We visited 1 place and it was actually very nice. Can't keep driving these old cars forever and better to get them to someone who appreciates them than to let the kids deal with it. I can still keep 1 car and my son has already stated he wants the 52 Ford.

Geez OL REDNECK take it easy, if you aren't careful, you could hurt yourself. I just got out of a place like that. They don't like us too much. They stick tubes everywhere they can, put you on a cart & run you thru a huge tunnel. My prayers are with you. They want me to go in hospices never thought that I would end up this way. Take care my friend & will see you at the big show. Burn Out Bob

Wishing him well!

Re: Old redneck
 

Just chatted with Redneck for a while. He is still in the hospital but in really good spirits. Wishing him the best for a full recovery.

He said he already has received parts to correct some things the judges found wrong with his beautiful '32 3 Window in Clayton. Ken is not a quitter!
