For some odd reason after dying unexpectedly a few weeks ago, Dad's car decided to run fine for Fathers Day.

I took it out for coffee and spilled it all over myself and the center console just like my Dad used to. Nice drive though. It kinda speaks to me.

Its been almost 15 years since my Dad passed away but I still think of him every day. He had no idea when he bought this car 34 years ago what it would mean... and what it means today... and what it will mean to my kids.

To everyone out there in 914world land... Happy Fathers Day!

Good news! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/thumb3d.gif)

Definitely one of the best 914 histories ever... IMHO.

Rob, I think your Dad was "with you" & didn't want to miss his Fathers' Day Drive either, so he chased the gremlins out! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
