What a sad story. Sad for the owner and sad for the car! Yes, he preserved the car's value, but he died and had no family to leave it to! Now, what if he had driven that car for 40 years and really enjoyed it? Taken it to the drag strip in summer and maybe won a few street brackets. When the car was new, not much would have touched it on the strip! I'll leave a story that I prefer, about a man and his Volvo. 3 million miles and still looking good!  autos.yahoo.com/blogs/motoramic/3-millionth-mile-irv-gordon-66-volvo-p1800-195116553.html |
