I sincerely hope this Deuce finds a good home someday, and once again wish to thank Earl and Linda Roof for their hospitality.

[/ QUOTE ] I just wanted to second that notion. Linda and Earl couldn't have been nicer folks, taking time out of their Saturday afternoon to chat with us at length about the car, their trip to Yenko to pick it out, and the good old days in general.

I found it especially interesting that Earl got the idea to go to Yenko to look at the Deuces from a high school acquantance he'd picked up hitchiking one day. Earl explained to the schoolmate he was considering a new Chevy Super Sport...and the fateful hitchiker mentioned he had some literature from Yenko that he'd pass along to Earl when dropped him home. Earl looked it over and he and Linda took a trip to Canonsburg...you know the rest. 35 years later it's still out in the garage. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

Linda and Earl, if you're reading this, thanks again for being such gracious hosts.

Hi Bill, Thanks for the compliment, https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/blush.gif I appreciate it! It was really great having these folks visit. We had a great time chatting about these cars and exchanging information. There was a time when we thought we would NEVER part with this car. I used to tell Earl that if he died before me I would just take the backhoe out on the farm, dig a big hole, set him in the driver's seat of the Deuce, slick his hair back, put one hand on the wheel, the other hand on the shifter and just drop them both in!!! Just goes to show you should never say never. Linda

Hi folks, After investigating a few of our other options, we have finally made a decision. The car is defininitely for sale as is. We aren't sure yet how we are going to go about selling it. We have been a little preoccupied for the last month. My 56 year old brother went into the hospital for a simple operation to open a blocked tear duct and had a massive stroke following the surgery. His condition is still critical but he is starting to show some small signs of improvement. We have had some tough decisions to make concerning quantitity versus quality of life for him. Would appreciate you keeping him in your prayers. Thanks, Linda and Earl
