Was diving my Newport to my Grandson's school to pick him up as I do every Wednesday when it hit me: This is November! I've had this car for 21 years now!
Yep, bought it in November, 2003. Actually made the deal in September of '03, but the deal included I would come up with the money while he held the car. I sold my '62 New Yorker to Steve Hobby, then borrowed 5 grand from a Church Member. Drove to Pahrump. Nevada from Bakersfield and towed the car home. Didn't think it would be the car I would hold on to the longest. The Gremlin is in second place at 18 years, and the '96 Stratus we bought new we had for 17 years. Wow! Just now getting around to the body and interior work.
