HOT STUFF!
anyway...
this car took us through our dating years...
on our honeymoon...
and through the birth of our first three children...
...it even took us all the way to the west coast and back...
alas...
it became necessary to switch to a larger vehicle with the addition of our fourth child...
so we sold this car because, back then, we were really pinching pennies...
...this was the days before minivans...
...and because we were pinching pennies...
...we bought a clunker of a used station wagon that didn't serve us very well...
(which is another story!)
anyway...
...even though we were penny-pinching folks...
...and it would have been in storage for many years...
...there was always a lingering regret that we sold it and we even went on a kind of useless hunt for it.
...no luck...
four years ago we went to a local benefit auction...
...and lo and behold, there was this...
...not a '66 LTD Ford...
...but a fully restored '67 mustang...
...close enough...!
''The Baby!'
...and the new owner...
...only on sunny days this Baby gets to see daylight...
...this sunday was one of them...
...i feel like a queen in it...
...and hubs? well...he feels like a young teenager again...
...and i just smile inside myself when he occasionally steps on the gas and those mufflers make those macho sounds!
