Why this car? Well, I originally purchased this car and put some work in to it. But I ended up selling in to a friend of mine in 1995. The buyer ended up putting a lot of work in to it and then in 2006, I had some extra money and the car was for sale. My son, Duane, told me that I would regret it if I didn’t go over and buy it back. He was right. It was really great to actually have Duane with me when I got the car back. Now that it’s mine again, I’ve started working on it some more. The trunk on this car is amazing. I can fit anything I want in there!

What’s special about Woodward and/or the Dream Cruise for you? It’s great to see all of the cars and people. It’s cool to get so many people from out of state and see the cars that they bring with them.
