To Rick H, we never said the car was original condition

Good Luck.

Hi, Was the name of the hill Vinegar Hill? I don't actually remember Jimmy Stewart's dad's store but Earl does. That's what an age difference of 5 years means. And yes it was Delaney Chevrolet who turned us down on the trade. Don't even remember what we were negotiating on now since that dealership has never been a favorite of ours. The only car I can remember buying there was a 1985 Monte Carlo SS. I drove that car the whole time I was in nursing school and then we gave it to our oldest boy for graduation. He still has it, it sits in our garage next to the Deuce when he's not out terrorizing the town with it. Like father, like son, I guess. Our other boy has a Buick Regal GS. It gets parked in our basement garage every winter. Hope they soon build garages of their own. Yes we did do a lot of business at the Auto Parts Store. Earl's idea of a fun date before we were married was pulling his Chevelle into the garage every other Sunday and swapping intakes. I think to this day if I had to change an intake manifold on one of those older Chevys I could probably do it blindfolded. Linda

Sounds like Earl hit the jackpot in his choice of wife as well as car

All this talk about Indiana, PA brings back good memories. I graduated from IUP and my apartment was on Water street.Great town I sure don't miss the Sheetz death dogs with saurkraut, chili, cheese, jalepenos and onion at 3:00am after a night at the DTD house (killer heartburn). Earl and Linda good luck with the sale sounds like a very cool car from cool original owners

Hey, IUP alumni here too! I lived on 722 Philly, right across from Scro's bar...total sh*t hole apartment... When were you there? I might have been in the death dog line behind you at the Sheetz a few times. (Hold the kraut on mine though please.)

Yep Linda, it was/is Vinegar Hill. Terrific to hear of a former customer of my Papa (Sam Brubaker). He loved his job and would wake at any time of the night to help a customer. Delaney never impressed me either. But I did get a few parts for my '49 Chevy Sedan (some hot rod!) that were still in the system in the mid 70's. Sounds like the whole family has a good healthy appreciation for American Muscle. Man that Earl sure knows how to pitch some serious woo!

Now everyone mind your manners and remember, don't mix it up with an Indiana girl. You could bite off more than you could chew. I know, cause I was raised by one!
