When really really young, Parents took me to my first car show and that car, the Green Monster, started it all for me. Of course a few years later I discovered George Barris.

Tis sad indeed!

Too many legends leaving us.
I remember seeing Art when he was making the circuit with Tractor Pulling back in the 70's & 80's. He was bringing the diesel powered tractor around and blowing the doors off the multi gas engine rigs. What a site that was, when the smoke cleared.

Unfortunately, my kids will never know of men like that. Kids can't grow up and do the same things they did back when Art was growing up.
Nowadays the closest kids get to true daredevils is on the X-Box! :cry

Thanks, for the memories. R.I.P. :peace

Speaking of Legends, have you been dining with Jimmy Carter. He's gotta be close by. BTW, you had any Billy Beer?

Let me get this straight. Your dad drank 6 Billy Beers. That has to be a record. I couldn't even get one down.
