Default Will it follow me home

I have an appointment to view a '39 coupe tomorrow.

Could be a sleepless night for this excited little boy.

Tune in tomorrow......................................

Oh How I know that feeling!!
The issue is always the wife. I find it much easier to ask for forgiveness than permission-Karl

I have laid awake many a night worrying about a lot of different things. But if I lay awake ALL night it's gotta be because I'm hauling something home the next day. I just get way too excited! Can't wait for the pictures taken into the rear view mirror. Drive safely!

A 39 coupe. It doesn't get much better than that. Would that I could afford one.
