    I just needed to share. My Mom and Dad are pictured here are celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary with a ride in Royal's Aces and Eights. My father had a chopped and channeled 31 A coupe in high school while my mother had a 40 Mercury convertible. While driving the Deuce they could not believe the high school flashbacks they were having and just loving it. My Mom also battles cancer and my Father helps her in that battle, this is the first time I have really seen their beautiful smile in a long while. I love you mom and Dad and have fun in Hawaii. Love Kelly Skipper

    There's a major Cancer Treatment Center in Houston named M.D. Anderson that might use a visit with a proposal for this type of therapy from Houston HAMBers!!

    i like that kind of stuff. just today, my grandparents were visiting, and they used to have a '57 chevy 4 door hardtop, as soon as my grandmother sat in my '55 she remembered the big old 18" steering wheel, and how she could drive something that big back then with the huge steering wheel. my grandfather had the same flashback! i think as soon as it hits the streets, i'll be taking them to a cruise in, they get the back seat! haha
