Featured Folks Of Interest Based On The Response....SANTA DONE GOOD!

Hello Everyone,

My friends & many of my customers here on the forum know of our battle with my Wife's stage 4 breast cancer that had metastasized to her back, subsequent spine surgery, months of wheelchair time, then walker, cane & rehab. After a year & a half she is back to driving & walking very well & we are WINNING the battle as the original tumor has been shrinking as shown on each 3 month scan!

She loves our hobby, the cruises & shows, so I figured this was the year I get her one of her own! The 57 T-Bird was one of the two she liked the best, the other is a late 50's Desoto Conv in red of course, but that is a little big for her.

I had been hiding this car in my enclosed trailer since just after Thanksgiving & could not wait until Christmas, so I could give it to her! She stays at our "in town" house as she can't drive the long distance from this house to work each day ( I drive back & forth the 100 mile round trip 3 or 4 times per week), so I had the car sitting in front of the house with a big bow on it before she woke up Christmas morning! Between the tears, smiles & laughter....I think she loves it! LOL She drove it around the neighborhood with the bow still on it honking & waving to neighbors like she was in a parade

57 T-Bird 312 4bbl auto. Power Steering, seats & windows. Aftermarket air & front disc brakes. It is a clean Texas car that had been in Ohio for the last two years. Of course since we live in Ohio, I will be storing it with mine until spring. I also have a feeling we will be taking it to Lloydfest IV in '26.

God Bless
Bill

That car is good looking on its own, but that smile on her face makes it all the better. You done good Bill, and I couldn't be happier for Laura.
