something...

It's apparent one of the things he didn't do with money from folks
who got on the telephones is take care of his car.




While Connolly leather is top quality stuff, you still have to take care
of it. They sell their own brand of hide food.






And it ain't cheap. I won a Connolly leather care kit as a 'door
prize' at a car show when I had my Lotus on display. A guy approached
me on the swap field and I wound up trading it for a pair of radiator
fan motors for my 308 GTS.

Them hide eat better than I do.

There used to be a big old Goodwill store on Palmyra Street in down town
Jackson.They closed that old store down about seven years ago.I used to
take another route when I left that store and I remember seeing what I
think might be an early 1960's Austin Healy convertible car sitting
inside of an open front garage at a house on one of them back Streets.I
dont think that car had been driven in many years.I am going down town
tomorrow on Wilmington Street to buy a big thirty four pound bag of
Chicken Soup For The Dog Lovers Soul dog food for my little doggy.
www.chickensoupforthepetloverssoul.com (she eats better than I do) If I
think about it,I might see if that old car is still there.If it's for
sale,I would give them $100.00 for the old car,take it or leave it.
