A Cool SSR Story from NJ
I have a nice story to tell from South Jersey. Yesterday was a beautiful day here, so we decided to take the SSR to work at our antiques shop for the day. After all, there's plenty of room for stuff in the back! Anyway, we unloaded our stuff for the day and parked the SSR out front of our shop to try and draw attention and get people into our shop. After all, we can use all the help we can get in these hard times. After about an hour, I looked out the front window and there was a silver SSR parked right next to our red one. This is the first time this has ever happened - they're multiplying, I thought! Yea!!! Anyway, a lovely older lady got out the silver SSR and came into the store. She's from the area and was on her way home from church, but when she saw our red SSR, she had to pull into the shop. We had a wonderful conversation with her. Come to find out she's 84 years young, and enjoying her SSR as her daily driver! She spends part of her year in NJ and part in FL (the SSR had FL tags). It was so lovely to meet her, so if you're reading this Etta, please bring your SSR by the shop again when you can!

That's a great story!!!!
Leaving the WDC and heading home on Mound Road was an elderly lady driving her 57 convertible with a great flame job on it. I thought......How cool is that!!! She was hunched over the steering wheel and just as cute as anything and proud as hell of her 57. We smiled at each other
