I can't top that story, Moose. I think I told my story before, but here goes. When I was 16 in 1975 I sarted working at a Sunoco station. All the guys that worked there had cool cars. I had a real nice Mustang convertible (which I still own) but fell in love with old coupes ever since I saw American Graffiti. The guy that owned the Amoco station down the street had a 1932 Chevy 5 window. He would stop in once in a while and I thought the Chevy was pretty cool. He was the only guy I knew who had an old hotrod. As years passed I still worked part time at the Sunoco and when I saw my friend from the Amoco I would joke with him about selling me the Chevy. He told me he was keeping it for his son. Around 1985 he put the car in storage and I kind of lost touch with my friend, talking to him a couple times over the years (and still joking about the coupe). I stopped working at the Sunoco in about 1995 when the owner sold it. I lost touch with eveyone as I started my family and was raising 4 boys. Then about 4 years ago I invited all my old friends from my gas station days to my house for a reunion. It was great to see everyone. My buddy with the coupe was there and he told me although he still had it, his son wasn't very interested, but he still didn't want to sell it. Well, it took about another year of my hounding him, but he finally gave in and sold me the car. It will be 3 years that I have owned it come this August. It is almost streetable and it has been a blast. I only hope that the build will not have been better than the drive. I have no intention of ever selling it. Thanks for asking, Tom Jim
