I didn't know you had Portuguese blood in you Patty

So, I am just wondering if this also explains me.

I was born there in 1946.
My mother was born there in 1917.
My grandfather was born there in 1892.
My great grandfather was born there in 1865.

Sorry so off topic.

Back on topic, my family had a 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air Station Wagon, color Sierra Gold.

As an 11 year old when we got it, I thought it was beautiful.

^Yeah, and the major ancestry I have explains the skin cancer.


Oh, since this is an All Things Automotive thread, I'll throw in a photo or two, of course.

We had some paint work done on the P car in the fall. When we uncover it soon, it's going to have the Xpel clear coat. We would like to minimize damage from stone chips.

I saw an Aston Martin SUV the other day. I guess all the luxury cars have one now. Not appealing to me.

Good idea. I think from now on I'll get it on all my new to me cars. My S2000 has something but the body shop did a crummy job on the lower bumper after they fixed the road gator damage. At least the hood was done okay. I wish I had it done on my Pilot. It's not too late but it is 4-1/2 years old with Colorado chips.

We had a 76 Impala wagon for the family. The back seat was mine for all of our trips to Michigan and Florida for vacations.

New car talk. Got a popup add for the new Lotus(es) Lotus(ii)? ... new Lotus models .. Nice. The EV has some looks like a Lambo.

How can you tell if she has a clear bra? she has a shirt on.
