My Kid (And Somebody Else's Hot Rod)


There's this hamburger place down the street from our house called Grill 57. On the third Saturday of the month, they have a thing they call a cruise-in. It's pretty much a car show kinda deal where the locals polish up their Camaro's and Mustangs and stuff, eat hamburgers and just generally hang out and rap about cars.

We stopped by today and snapped this picture of Presley and a primered Ford sedan (with a sloppily-chopped top and some ugly rust spots). Looks cool here, though. I like a bit of a homegrown look. But that radiator cap's gotta go.

Presley was also hip to a beater Volkswagen Type III Squareback. No wonder I love her so much.
