    When you were raise with a Father who was always yelling and cursing as well as making you no more than a piece of crap he could bully around, It is extremely hard to loosen up with that type of people. I had Employee's way back in the 60's who are still my friends. My whole family was murdered by a person who treated his family and treated his family the same way but I put up with him because of his six children. It cost me my 30 year old wife and two daughters 12 and 13. Now how loose do you want me to be?

    Young lady has great taste. '57 Roadmaster rear windows ARE trick. A few minutes later she's astride a '53 John Deere model 60. Good looking and great taste in iron, she's a keeper all right. If she dabbed a little diesel behind each ear, I'd follow her anywhere. Thanks for the tour, who doesnt love a good wrecking yard? Best regards from Indiana.

    That old Dodge work wagon is awesome and well equipped for snagging the parts that you need! Hopefully it doesn't disappear if the poor guy passes away, I hope that they have family to carry on the business! I'm going to say that we used to have a few 100+ acres of salvage yards and I will say that we had at least two dozen in the Western Pennsylvania area and we are now down to one and he is 73 and wants to hang it up because no one wants to work for the man. Shame that they are disappearing at a alarming rate in the east coast or should I say the North Eastern states.
