540,000 Miles and a CCW
« on: February 18, 2010, 08:43:38 AM »
She's nearly 90 and recently drove to her 70th Highschool Reunion.  In her Mercury Comet with 540,000 miles on the original engine.  She wasn't afraid to go by herself because she has a carry permit.  I LOVE this old broad ;D

I think this is in the DRTV archives, posted last year, but it's still great to see. Great woman, and great story. Miss those old cars.

Especially, my 1960 Chrysler New Yorker, 413 Golden Lion engine, purred like Haz...  ;D

Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."
