There’s quite a bit of work that I’ve neglected to do on the Plymouth — mostly because I lack completing the electrical work in the garage. That work is really Job 1 in the garage, but there’s a long list of chores I need to tackle on the Plymouth over the winter. TO DO LIST […]
Early October cruise brings out the cars, crowds
Sunday, Oct. 9, 2022 Its been a beautiful and busy weekend for me, my son and my wife. Saturday, my wife worked several hours and our son worked a NASCAR race at the radio station. I spent the time boxing up some eBay items and washing the Plymouth in preparation for Sunday’s cruise. The temp […]
The paint code I’m seeking may be AC-8 from 1982 …
Monday, Aug. 22, 2022 A major classic car paint provider advised me a couple months ago they did not have the paint formula for the 609 Midnight Blue Poly on my Belevedere. They had the formula for the 605 Powder Blue but not the Midnight Blue. I’ve been searching for another provider online without much […]
Assisted Living event
Thursday, Aug. 11, 2022 Yesterday I drove the Plymouth to Windsor Gardens Assisted Living to show the car at a Beach Day event they were having for residents. I had gotten busy early in the week and the rain meant I didn’t get a chance to wash the car ahead of time. Thankfully, the car […]
New / old parts make me a happy car guy …
Monday, July 25, 2022 I haven’t been buying too many parts for the Plymouth on eBay, though there are some I would love to have but don’t want to pay the asking price (think tail lights). But today, the USPS man brought me an item I snagged on eBay just as soon as I saw […]
Cooling our heels, out of the summer heat …
Friday, July 22, 2022 The local car group’s Saturday cruise is tomorrow, but I’m not going to go. At last months’ cruise I nearly melted it was so hot and miserable. Hey, I love being with the cruisers, but it was just too hot that day. We’ve had a long stretch of blisteringly hot days, […]
Cruise-in Sunday, but not for me this time …
Friday, June 10, 2022 The local group is having two events this weekend — providing cars for a display prior to the downtown street concert on Saturday, then one of the first Sunday cruise-ins the groups is now scheduling on a regular basis. The weather for both days is going to be great; however tomorrow, […]
A very memorable Memorial Weekend cruise-in …
Saturday night, May 28, 2022 Everything came together this week and I was able to actually participate in this weekend’s Whiskey City Cruisers cruise-in. The time of the monthly cruise was changed to noon to 6 p.m., and the last time I got there after noon and couldn’t find a good parking spot. This time […]
Hitting the road with the Whiskey City Cruisers!
Sunday night, March 20, 2022 Due to the unseasonably warm and sunny temps today, the Whiskey City Cruisers had a rare Sunday cruise today. Actually, it wasn’t the first of the year, but it was the first that I took part in with the Plymouth. Turnout was excellent … at least 80 cars were there, […]

Sunday, Jan. 9, 2022 Happy New Year to any readers lurking around this blog! For the first time in quite a while, my wife and I actually left home for New Year’s — we went to the lake house of my wife’s best friend for the night. Good time! The local car club continues to […]
