Dale,
Thanks for the kind words. When some of the G&D folks at Flint saw the older 1942 picture of my Mother-in-Law sitting on the 34's fender and then saw her by the car they approached She and my wife, Carolyn, about doing a story on the history of the car and it's restoration.
I thought maybe it might warrant a picture with a short article. I was totally amazed that it got so much coverage. Maybe it was all the pictures my wife emailed and sent on a CD and the information she submitted.
My only regret is that my Father-in-law is gone and can't enjoy the coverage. He was a interesting, talkative, and great guy and would have loved seeing his car in the G & D.
Oh, I didn't ask her to sit on the fender. It's a bit more slippery than it was back in 1942. But she is in excellent health, at 85, and could have done it.
By the way, as a former Editor and Publisher of a state professional teacher's Journal, I'll bet the G & D folks really appreciate members sending in stories and pictures of their cars. They are doing an absolutely amazing job. It is a top-notch publication but new material is always needed and welcome.
