Hi KRB.Reost #124315.I have two words for people like that,and they ain`t"MerryChristmas". I`m referring to the ones that would protest the rationing of gas today if it was necessary for national defense.
Good luck.Have fun.Be safe.

Hey, Rudestude, Ok, the car show pics were a little out of the timeframe for this thread, but I thought the family pics were great. Nice fresh, never been seen before pics with an interesting story behind them.
Thanks for posting, I know the effort it takes, and don't be disheartened.
