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!

It just goes to show that the SSR is for all ages to enjoy! If she ever trades it in, the dealer can say it was driven by an older lady!!

I took a chance that their screen name is also the name of their store. I know there is one in Cape May, although there are others

Their name is TreasuresPast. If you Google it, you get:
Treasures Past, 300 Main St, Cape May Court House, NJ


I stopped at a shop in Barnegat NJ that had their yellow SSR out front. Unfortunately they had many problems with their SSR and did a buy back.

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


OH and traveling 10 over the speed limit COOL!!!
