Oh what fun it is to ride...

I got a car for Christmas. We already kind of had the car; it's been sitting out back for a month or so, awaiting nicer weather so Hub can put the new gear box on it. But Dad made a deal... we "officially" got that one and my sister got the mint-green Cougar she's been using. It'll save him some money on insurance and "thin the herd" a bit.

So yeah. Remember that blue '73 Buick Electra 4-door that's been featured on here before? That's the one. The blue whale. The tuna boat. Bo the Buick. I almost wish we could drive it today... going after-Christmas shopping and that thing would hold a LOT of half-price gift wrap. Enough for several future holidays. Could hold the entire family, all their bags, three cups of coffee and a box of Dunkin Donuts, with room in the trunk for groceries, all without squishing the gift wrap. And with plenty of legroom for everyone.

I want a bumper sticker that says "My other car got eaten by this one."
