  • Gus Update

    Gus has been taking a backseat to Mabel Lately. He got a new rear end and Rims and Tires. He's Standing a little taller now days. We have a gasket set for him he's going to get a engine overhaul real soon. While the engine is out his engine compartment will get refurbished like Mabels. Then we will start the sanding prepping for his paint job. He is being driven daily back and forth to my husbands work. He still has his signs on his doors Gus Mater Towing and Salvage Radiator Springs. He will be going on the blossom trail run on Sunday. So thats the Gus Update.

    I will Take a new picture of Gus Tomorrow,For those who didn't know Gus I posted this one.

    Annie, you aren't talking about Pear Blossom Highway, are you? Yikes![:0] There's good reason it's called Death-Trap Highway. Believe me, I would know. I drove that road for the school district and Greyhound for four years. Watch yourself, okay?

        No - she's talking about a particular route that's mapped out on local secondary roads for the purpose of appreciating all the fruit orchards in bloom this time of year. It's quite a local phenomenon - vast groves of white and varying shades of pink blossoms. Pretty cool![8D]

        No deceptive flags to prove I'm patriotic - no biblical BS to impress - just ME and Studebakers - as it should be.

            Is this in the San Joaquin valley? That could be a long trip. If it's in the San Fernando, a short trip. I didn't know that SF had any orchards left.
