I'm not sure what to think about this latest intrusion into the Garage. Maybe I need to spend more time with my wife?

She appears to be giving you some hints! Maybe its just that she needs a new clothes dryer......

just start using them for rags or headlight covers and I ASSURE YOU......it won't happen again.

Freud would have to say she's trying to tell you something.

Boy, Kelly, you must not be married....if I grabbed one of my wife's to use as a shop rag, I'd be living in the shop!

Tony,It'll be five years on the 23rd of this month. Best deal I ever made !!!!! I accidentally screw up my wifes stuff all the time and she doesn't say anything. Yesterday I came across a piece of horse hair pottery she made that had red over spray on it from the Midget trunk lid. ( I did that a year ago). I asked her if she had to make another one because of it and she said yes. I told her I was sorry and she should have told me as I could have fixed it for her. She said she didn't want to bother me and would rather make another than to trouble me.

She knows she's #1 with me and nothing comes between us. It "buys" me alot of "mileage" but there is nothing I wouldn't do for her and she knows it. I come and go as I please and buy whatever I want without hardly a look.

I'm currently not racing or restoring her car (never say "happy birthday" to your wife while she's driving the LBC you just bought for yourself) because I'd rather spend the time and money on/with her.

I've had alot of "test drives" (way more than my fair share) but it took me THIRTY FIVE YEARS to find my first and only wife for a reason.

She is FLAT OUT the best friend I've ever had and the best person I have ever met !!!!!!

I am 100% completly at her disposal and she never abuses that.

I am, after all, proudly.....Kelly's guy.

I could get one younger or richer, but I'll NEVER be able to get one BETTER !!!

MY WIFE ROCKS !!!!!!

I know you guys like pics, lemme see if I can get this to work. Here's some of our wedding pics.

Normally I would never post any pics of her on the internet but I know you guys will be respectful.

The hat in the last pics was a joke. When she first moved back south from Manhattan, she said she thought she might want a cowboy as she was previously involved w/ an English guy. I told her I was about as close as she was gonna come to that in this town, so she better just make due.

After we were married and walked out to the car, I put the hat on which was in the car. She's trying really hard not to laugh at the hat. She started cracking up in the pic before this one.

Notice what our wedding car is.

You got a couple of real beauties there. You are a lucky man.

Brother, God has so greatly blessed me that sometimes I can't believe it myself.

If you only knew how my life was before, you woulndn't believe it either.

...BUT I've got the pictures to prove it !!!!

She's as sweet and loving as she is beautiful.

Thanks, both are definatly keepers.

The car is a rust free, never wrecked California car that I bought in the condition you see and drove it home for $1,500. I put about 4000 miles on it before I had to put any money in it.

I keep telling her how lucky we are w/ the car. It belonged to her friend. I saw it in their garage under a cover and told them to let me know if they ever wanted to sell it. I got a call from my wife two weeks later saying they would take $1500. I immeadialty got in my car and drove over w/ the cash...........and I wasn't even looking for a LBC !!!!!!

Oh, it came with a hard top too.
