Papas Sin Sal, AKA The 30 day wonder
Spanish slang for a person with no personality - simple - boring, bland individual. Literal meaning is "potatoes without salt."
|
This car was found in a garage in Inglewood Ca. still since 1979. Rats ate the interior, the flat head 6 was junk. the wiring was bad, the tires rotten, glass missing, steering was worn and it didn't stop.
And Santa Maria was 45 days away, YES I want to drive this car to that show.
( it should be named "the 45 day wonder" but my club members christened it "the 30 day wonder", go figure)
With my sanity, money and free time tossed aside I went to work. With help from my neighbor Larry, and my car club members, Panel Beaters baby! I made it to the show.

Monte Car-Low
The Monte Carlo was the perfect car for the 70's. it had clean lines, it was easy to "lift" and financially was within reach of the average enthusiast. Most simply swapped wheels and replaced the coil springs for hydraulic cylinders then hit the streets.

9/11 U.S.A. FOREVER
9/11/01 I had the day off from work. that morning I was watching the news, they were reporting a fire in one of the towers in New York. I stopped to think how hard it must be to fight a fire in such a large building and I hoped everyone got out safe. Just then the 2nd plane hit the 2nd tower. It didn't look real. I had just watched it happen on live tv, but I could not get my head around what I had just witnessed. right before my eyes lives were lost and the world changed.
The souls in the towers and at the Pentagon, all those aboard the planes, and brave men and women that ran into the fire,
NEVER FORGET.
GOD BLESS AMERICA.
