How about this for a Christmas present. Not sure the Safe Driver tag fits after my rough go in 2009 but I'm keeping it anyway. Smells like it's been in a damp atic for thirty years but I'm thinking the hat guy can make it new again. I do look good in a hat. I may just sleep with it on.

Ted,

That is a very cool hat. Is it the right size for you or will someone have to work on resizing it? I'll bet you could sell that hat decoration award to George in a heartbeat. You might want to consider having some knock offs made and sell a pair to George and Debi. They bought the drivers hats at the auction in OKC.

Ted,

You can't show us your cool new hat without showing us a picture of you wearing it. Give your adoring public what they want, let us see you model that beauty.

Tuga, unless you want the rally to end on a sour note, you don't want me to sing. I'm not kidding.
On the other side of the moutain in the background of your sking picture is Red River, NM where Jan and I went on our honeymoon 45 years ago. We still get up there every year or so to fish the Cimmaron River that you drove by on your way to Angle Fire. Wonderful country up there, wish we were with you guys.

Ted,

I wish you and Jan were here as well. The Cimmaron River was beautiful. The entire drive was gorgeous once we starting going thru the mountains.

We rode to Taos today, and it was really neat. We ate at Michael's Kitchen and Bakery; it was awesome. Wish we would have had time to ride over to Red River. I've heard that the skiing is good and it is a beautiful little place.

Congrats on your 45 year marriage!:D Wow!

"MPD" is not our only affliction, there is "Aluminitis", the Airstream disease, and "DRLR disease, short for Detroit-Rolling-Livingroom-Disease.

We haven't named her yet, and she has 56,000 miles and was in the same family since 1980. She is a 1979 Lincoln Mark V

Big Bertha would be apt.

I believe her hood is longer than a Smart car.

Jon,
You are correct. From the tip of the bumper, to the door/fender edge IS the length of a Smart Car.:D

Gary,

Tell us what your looking for, since we will be at the Palm Springs Car auction Feb. 26-28 after staying the nite at California Coach for some A/C work on or aroound the 23rd. Since we bought a car here at home, we are "purchase-proofed" and can see the auction just as spectators, not buyers.:D Then its fourwheelin' in the desert with Bluevost and Buster.:) the 1st week of March.

grantracy,
the car in the background is "Rita" our 1959Ford Country Squire 9 passenger station wagon with the T-Bird upgraded 352CID motor. The 1959 Ford was the 1st 300 hp wagon offered from Detroit.
