Armed with a year of experience working
with the Honda Civic Si and a veteran team of drivers, RSR Motorsports
hopes to start the GRAND-AM Continental Tire Sports Car Challenge season
by doing something they have never done before: win at Daytona.
"Look here". He said.
"The first thing you need to learn is to never bite into a green chile.
When we test in the field, we never do that. Look here".
To give
you an idea of the depth of the collection, on display is a 1926
Rolls-Royce. Wilbert Grinsven, the curator tells me that there were only
two years that Rolls-Royce manufactured cars in the United States. Those
years were 1926 and 1927. This car is one of the few Rolls Royce's made
here during that time. The auto manufacturer decided that it was not
economically feasible to continue manufacturing autos in the US and
closed its factory here in the states after only 2 years. Another
example of a beautiful old car is a car used in the movie "Driving Miss
Daisy".

Considering cost of
living in her area in the seventies, her income was suitable. A new home
could be purchased for $25,000. A postage stamp rose from $0.06 in 1970
to $0.15 in 1979. I asked my mother if she could recall some prices of
the decade. She remembered bread being $0.29, gas $0.74 a gallon, candy
bars $0.05, soft drinks $0.10-0.15 a bottle in the early seventies and
in the late seventies prices started to rise. She remembered cigarettes
costing $1.00 a pack, cracker $0.29, milk $1.00 and most canned goods
$0.10. Do any of these scenarios sound familiar? Have you ever
been involved in a situation where you felt you were treated unfairly,
yet you didn't know how to resolve it? We all face situations like these
most every day. Of course, the easiest "remedy" is to just keep quiet
and not deal with the problem. But, in reality, the best remedy is to
negotiate a resolution so the matter can end.
On December 14th
while stalled in traffic, my dad was the victim of a wreck whereby an 18
wheel truck hit a stalled line of traffic and the truck was going 65
mph. My dad was one car up from the point of impact. Ford Truck Deal is
not something you will find too much information on. You might want to
check neverypay2much.com. Even the strength of his 1991 ford truck deal
could not keep him from sustaining injuries. All of his ribs were broken
and his pelvis was crushed, his brain was bleeding and he was on life
support. Skip: "Yes, yes, I saw
him! D' did you? He was by the trees, or was it in front of the
house...? No, by the road; gee, maybe it was both, he seemed to be in
both locations at once. A shadow effect I suppose." . I know that $20,900 is a goodly sum of money, but in 13 years we
more than doubled our money. And that is looking at just the financial
aspect of it. The many wonderful hours we had working on something
together that we both love, you can't even put a price tag on
that. The situation might sound like a win-win but some
people say "Cash for Clunkers" is a speed bump, slowing customers who
might want a used car. Used car dealers at Naff Auto Sales told WSLS the
program could force people into buying a new car. Another possible
problem, Clunkers traded in with the program have to be destroyed,
meaning they won't end up for sale on a used car lot. Better for the
environment, bad for used car business. But many say it's a trade we
need to make. Many don't want to put the brakes on the program. In an
interview with WSLS, the president of Berglund Automotive said close to
40 people have taken advantage of the government program so far. They
say "Cash for Clunkers" is giving customers the kick they need to get a
new car.
