A Chrysler New Yorker and a Plymouth were slumbering in the yard. Without current plates, they wouldn’t get far.
They knew being hidden was not a factor, especially with the Gravely lawn tractor.
The Plymouth even has Mercedes wheel covers, so rust of the lug nuts was no reason to shudder.
Alone in the yard, they were not, since there was a licensed Dodge in the flock.
Looking forward pained the Dodge, as he said “Put me in the damn garage!”
But such was not the fate today, as Jason and his camera had headed that way.
Earlier today I went to a car show. And, wouldn’t you know? The ’48 Dodge seen above is actually a limo!
I pity the poor New Yorker, on the farm like any other porker.
And the sorry state of that Plymouth DeLuxe, is enough to give anyone acid reflux.
I will cease before this poetry of Mopar
puts the readership into a stupor.
or
There was once an old man with a Dodge
Who refused to put it in the garage
He said “I’ll admit
I’m a bit of a shit”
but it makes pretty good camoflage.
I’ll stop now.
Thank you for the much needed laugh this morning!
Gravely lawn tractor makes me think there should be a Studebaker nearby. Perhaps that’s what is in the garage? 😛
Years ago I had a work colleague who had a very low mileage, loaded 64 Chrysler New Yorker in perfect condition (SoCal). She kept it a long time because it was the last car her husband bought before he died. She traded it for a new Dodge Dart coupe in the mid-70’s due to the “gas crisis,” despite the fact that she drove only two miles each way to work. I remember how often she regretted that decision. She complained about having to crank open her driver’s window at our parking gate and the loss of her pushbutton transmission controls. Every time I see one of these cars I think of her and “the one that got away.” We need a piece on the one car we all wish we’d kept longer…
Do we ever. In my case it was a sweet red ’77 Civic CVCC 5-speed coupe. Sold it when we moved west in ’80. I had to choose, my Civic or my wife. Wrong choice. (Now ex-wife).
Look at the black deck lid on the Dodge – that’s definitely a Plymouth chrome piece and center stoplight on it. I’ll bet it came from that Plymouth sedan.
