Attended cruise-in at the Riverside Senior living Center in Decatur.
The show was to entertain the seniors who lived at the center and to promote the Living Center. I made a quick trip to the rest room and when I returned I noticed this gentleman has proceeded to use the tub of my Jeep for his lunch table. Oh well at least My Jeep and I received a good write up in the Decatur Daily News. Lawrence ![]() -------------------- Lawrence Wade

Feel blessed,
I made it around the block. Everything looked good, no leaks, oil pressure @ 60#, 190F. Got on the HWY, walked a 1.5 miles back to the house. Heck! I'd given the "Curmudgeon" a free meal @ KIP'S Grill in Creede,CO ( had I made it that far). Drinks on the house! Any way keep cruising-------- wish I could..............Take Care. |

That is just as rude as can be. At least they did not use the hood!

rcolijn,
The color is original. It is Julep Green Poly. See the color chart for the 1955. http://www.film.queensu.ca/CJ3B/Paint1.html Lawrence -------------------- Lawrence Wade

I think the old saying goes...."Ignorance is bliss"
That guy is the poster child. The fact he did not know you took his picture from 5 feet away is even more proof. Sorry you had to deal with that. |
