      I have been married to my 1st wife(haven't found the 2nd one yet)for 40+ years. I concur with the Elvis song that says "Regrets? I'v had afew,but then, too few to mention" Edie has been my valentine since 1968. I once made the statement." I married a little teenaged girl once, but I'll NEVER do that again!" and I stand by that. This year to express how much I care for her,I bought her a new set of Chrome Oil caps for her GT Hawk. NT

          Neil, you always crack me up. Good man, buying some bling for today...those will last, at least. Mine got flowers that will eventually die and candy that will surely be eaten!

            My Linda was a hot 18 YO cheerleader when I met her, which of course I liked. But when I got to know the person inside my goal became how to keep her around. That was 25 years ago, and the challenge continues since she's aged well, as beautiful as ever[^] And, still puts up with this Type A PITA, through the decades of racing, crashes/injury, business ups and downs, our son's illness, old cars, and all my other nonsense. Best I could come up with was flowers, candy, and dinner... and she's happy with that! She's my greatest blessing- way beyond what I deserve[^]

                Met my wonderful bride while we were both working at Sears after school. That was Christmas of '65, we married in spring of '68. Had a Black '59 Silver Hawk 4-spd, but was forced to sell it to buy something she could drive. Had major Stude-withdrawal attacks, and in short order had another, then another.....you get the picture. She became as addicted as I was, and still is, almost 42 years, one son, 9 Studebakers (and holding). What's not to like (love) about that arrangement! MAJOR happy valentines to her.

                  My lovely wife and I married in June, 1960. She has always liked antiques...now she has me and the Studebaker Avanti along with her other items! I am very thankful for her presence in my life, as I know how fortunate I am. Each day we are granted is a blessing.

                  I read a humorous short joke which I will post on Stovehuggers.

                    Did they get there in time? Just right Jerry. I taped them to a heart shaped box of candy and took them to her at work This morning. Along with a rose. She was the hit of the nurse's station.

                    You might be a REDNECK if you get your wife car parts for Valentines day. SHE might be a REDNECK if that's what she wanted. NT
