Dream car or biughtmare car?

Post by ModelT46 » Thu May 12, 2022 6:14 pm

My first dream car, a Model T Ford, was and is my 1910 Touring which I bought on Septmber 28, 1946 at the age of 14. I still own that one. The others included a 1932 Model B 400 convertable sedan. Sold it to Harrah's collection. As to a nightmare car, I did have a a 1924 Touring that gave me much trouble. Replaced what I could and sold it. That was many years ago.

Mine cars can be a Dream car or "biughtmare" at the same time. Driving along on a pleasant day and then the bang or klunk that sidelines us points out the Yin and Yang of it all. Even being under the car with grease up to our elbows and having someone stop to admire it brings some welcome pleasure. They certainly are a mixed blessing. I too let the lesser exciting ones go.

When did I do that?
