Well, I asked my dad about it, and he says Hoskins moved to Elk Grove in about 69. He told me that he used to run right down the street to get parts from Nickey.

Hey Ken,
Do you need a winter project? Because my car looks so much like yours, maybe I can secretly switch them in the middle of the night and you can do that 12....11....10 thing all over again. Or should I wait till the altzheimers kicks in?
