car behind me is my 1960 plymouth that
0:04
my father bought brand new on june 13
0:09
and obviously we've owned it
0:11
continuously since then
0:13
it too came back from the near dead in
0:17
it had suffered a uh ill-fated uh
0:20
engine rebuild care of a friend of mine
0:22
who thought he knew how to rebuild
0:25
actually i think he was better at making
0:26
boat anchors out of them
0:29
but through perseverance and some help
0:31
from my aunt rose my father's sister and
0:37
functional motor back in it
0:40
and little by little i started piecing
0:44
after six years of driving it every day
0:46
realized that didn't work
0:48
in 81 it was retired and then the
0:50
serious work got done on it
0:54
89 is when the bodywork was done so at
0:57
that point that was pretty much it for
1:04
tell me what it's like
1:07
kind of like meeting up with an old
1:13
nuance that it has its quirks its tricks
1:18
as my wife has found out it can go over
1:22
and uh with the right hands behind the
1:25
it can get up and go when it has to
1:28
and it dries quite nicely
