Ken, I remember that Randolph Sykes had some of the greatest cars. On in particular that stands out was a 1953 Mercury. He also had a red convertible but I don’t recall the make

Those car bring back some graet memories. I had a 1952 Studebaker commander Coupe with 272 cu. V/8 in ’55 & 56 and was the car I had on my first date with my wife Marylyn . I have been trying to find one to restore in my Golden Years with no success.. If anyone knows where I can find one let me know. I also remember PeeWee ‘s Kaiser Darin that I got to drive in a homecoming parade.

I remember the gasp I let out when Jim Reynolds drove his 63 or 64 Mustang to school. To me, that car was the Elvis cool of cars. About a year later attorney Rush Limbaugh II flipped me the keys to his Mustang so I could run an errand for the firm, and I remember bounding down the stairs only to hit a brick wall when I saw the car sitting in front of their office on Main Street…littered throughout with cigarette remains and reeking of smoke. I wanted to kill him…for desecrating a religious icon. Turns out he wasn’t done…he passed his course, irreverent sensibilities on to his son. Oh, the hummanity!
