Oh no....   Feel free to keep going....  You guys are making me feel younger
by the minute and I'm thoroughly enjoying this one. <Grin>  I'm passing the
link to pictures from a story a friend sent me about old cars found in a
barn.  It proved to be false as far as the details on snopes but the cars
were very real. The cars were never lost the photographer was hired to
document a private collection. I'm sure some of these cars went fishing in
their lifetime.   Of course I didn't recognize most of these cars because
I'm just too young but I thought you boys would enjoy them.  :)
Enjoy,
Deb

My father-in-law had a Studebaker Silver Hawk.  That probably had the 
best 0-60 of any car on the road.  He was a farmer and almost 60 
years old and the last person in the world to ever want to drag 
race.......... that is till he got that Silver Hawk.  I don't think 
anyone was able to beat him.  But he'd go zooming up to the speed 
limit and lay off.   Teen-agers who hadn't been able to keep up with 
him would go zooming past him.  And he'd just chuckle when he would 
tell us several times about them passing him and getting speeding 
tickets.

Studebaker was really a great car.  And yes, we DID go fishing in it 
one time (obligatory flyfishing comment).
