FJ - Glenn Chaffin Just Might Be Enjoying Retirement

Post by FreighTer Jim » Wed May 06, 2020 10:50 am

Last Sunday Mr. Chaffin and Miss Theresa were kind enough to spend part of their afternoon with my oldest daughter Sarah in Corona, California.

Sarah had a great time 😉

Mark Chaffin has allowed his Father retirement that he so deservedly earned 👍

You see the “ Corona “ emblem on Glenn’s roadster. About 20 years ago I was in Chaffins and Dave was not in and Glenn and I were talking and I made the unthinking comment that he must like corona beer a lot. Glenn just gave me a dirty look and said this is city of Corona. Talk about making an ass of myself! Chris, that was a very inappropriate comment, this is a family website. Frank

Glenn found that Corona radiator badge many years ago along with a whole bunch of old license plates.

Thanks Duey 😉

Sarah has expressed interest in transporting vehicles so I am looking for another truck.

I think this was Glenn’s first car .... 😉
