Cars, a family tradition

All my life my father has worked on cars and, as I found out, he started at a young age. Here he is working on his 1929 Franklin in 1944. A few years ago we flew the folks out for Christmas and, unbeknownst to my father, I had my 1927 Franklin delivered the day before they arrived.

Here he is driving my car 61 years after he had an almost identical car.

My condolences; it was great that he got to drive the Franklin when he did for one of many great memories you both shared. Take care and God bless you and your family during these tough times.
