Johnnie and
Lisa,
I always have time
for this sort of thing.
You know, Boyd
Coddington said it best. “Do what ever you have to do, just make sure the
thing is ready for spring.
Numbers matching? Who
really cares at this point? The fact that you personally blew up the original
engine should be a badge of honor.
Perhaps this will be
sufficient catalyst for a new beginning. How about you and Lisa begin with the
back seat? The girls have flown the coop, there’s nobody
around….
In the mean time,
there’s not a single part on that old Chevelle which can’t be had from several
different different suppliers and you have a new friend now who can help you
through the rough spots.
What’s the problem?
Now. Get going!
Thanks for watching
Dream Car Garage and especially for taking the time to
write.
Best
regards,
Tom

Like many others you hear about
every day...Our Chevelle languishes in the garage...with a stuck Carb
Float...a underinflated tire....and the Interior at the
Upholsterer.....it's Non-Numbers Matching ' 72 Chevelle SS (With
the abuse that I have placed on this car it WAS a numbers matching
coupe....but, Hey that's another story!)
Lisa and I have been married for
24 years, and I have had the Chevelle for a total of 26.
I've known each and every Woman
that has been in the Back Seat, Personally or otherwise as this car was my
Brother's Best Friends Graduation Present from High School in
1972.
Our Girls have all flown from the
nest and we are so busy trying to take care of immediate needs, that we cannot
see the "Trees from the Weeds"
Guessing that you might be asking
what the point might be by now?
Just a little line of
motivation...encouragement and knowing that time is something you dont really
have...a kind word and a boot to get out into the garage and get something
done on this car before it Rots away right in front of our
eyes.....
Needless to say, We watch each and
every episode.......and treasure the entertainment we get from the
experience!
