Default Re: Garage Sale Model A

Heh we were having a garage sale - i was out back with a sawsall and a chisel tryign to remove rock hard AA tires from rims in 91*F heat. I heard an ominus packita packita packita noise out front then it shut off. I peered around the corner and to my suprise what looked like a rusty barn find Model T out front. Immediately figured out who the owner was and showed him my AA project. He was impressed and we talked for quite awhile and i got to look over his car. It was a 1925 phaeton all original, 1st owner was a good friend of his dad and been stored in a barn for ages. He said all he did was get the mechanicals sorted out and drive it as is. Has all sorts of Roosevelt for president and buy war bonds stickers on the back haha. I see it occasionally floating around town.

Might sound dumb but im doing the call occasionally and stop by when i see the guy out who has a 1982 escort wagon...we used to have one and i wished we kept it (first time thats been said about an escort)
