One name, two very different cars... Both are impressive, and so I will write a little about both. The older one is newer... and the newer one is actually older. One is real, and the other you can actually buy. They are named Eleanor. So, why the riddles? The Original... In 1974, there was a movi

Those are words I hear from my son on an almost daily basis. He breaks stuff. He isn't doing it on purpose, but he is also just 4 years old, and he doesn't know how to take care of his stuff as much as he should. Honestly, most of the time... I can fix it. I have soldered, welded, glued and sn

This is one that really chaps my hide. I understand it from the consumer perspective, but at the same time, it is still a giant misconception. As a consumer, it is always a good idea to talk with a couple of agents before selecting the one to list with. But the purpose of the talk isn't to see

It has been quite a while since I hit the World of Wheels car show. I have been going to them off and on for 30 years. I have only made it a few times here in Atlanta. Of course you can expect a bunch of pictures... maybe a video or two. I am actually pretty jazzed this year. And there is goo
