Many of you know the story of Buttercup. If you don't it is a story every 914 owner should know as it is the essence of being part of this group.
http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?sho...mp;hl=buttercup Buttercup's owner Mary has been to many car shows in the area of Garden City, KS and she loves to tell the story of how Buttercup became the car she is. This weekend there was a car show and Buttercup attended - but the rest of the story is amazing. A plea went out to have an impromptu car show - with only 24 hours of notice to the Garden City community. What happened was amazing. Here is the Facebook plea: "I need a huge favor from all car lovers or to anyone that has a loved one. My dad only has days left in his life. He bought a couple hot rods to take to car shows with me and his grandsons. This will not happen. So I am asking from you is I want to bring a show to him at the hospital tomorrow in the east parking lot at St. Catherine hospital at 1:00. Please bring your car, bike or anything on wheels and help me bring his dream to reality. If you can spare a couple hours please come and join." Here is the result: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o0q-kK6xtpE Thank you Mary for representing with a 914.  |
