What to Know About yesterday’s comments of note
A few of the comments that stood out to us yesterday:
“My first awesome car! Bought slightly used in 1993, it was the dark grey color, almost black, and I put a 1″ drop on it with 16″ Momo 5 spoke wheels. Had a killer sound system in it and absolutely loved that car. Had it stolen in Seattle and recovered a few weeks later pretty much stripped out. Just didn’t feel the same anymore so sold it for what I could and moved on to a Toyota truck. Have owned damn near every Honda since then — Odyssey, Ridgeline, Accord and 2 generations of Civic…”
“wow, I used to service this car . worked for Ghent Motor Co. in 64 and 65. I wonder which salesman they bought it from, Bill Powers or Tex Perkins. Salesmen got 50$ a car back then.”
“They say Fort Stockton remembers things the way a screen door remembers wind. Not perfectly, not completely, but enough to make you swear something passed through.
The story of the Lincoln started that way.
It was the summer of 1937 when the couple arrived at the Cattle Baron Hotel, slipping into town like they had taken a wrong turn somewhere east of Dallas and decided not to correct it. The car came first, of course. Folks always remember the car before they remember the people.
Long…”
