Saturday Terry and I went to the Delta  County Historical Society and Museum’s 50th Year Celebration.  After touring the Museum, talking to new and old friends, we visited the antique booths and the Classic Car Show.   The last car we saw was the highlight of the whole Car Show for Terry and I–

Garrey Benis (now passed) found this still running and in very good condition in a barn at an estate sale in Nebraska.  He brought it home and he and his wife started going to car shows.

His wife still takes the car to local shows (she lives at Cory, Colorado) driving this darling car by herself all the way from there to here or where ever she is going.  She says she gets to going about 35-40 m.p.h.  (YAY, Mrs. BENIS!!!  You go, Girl!)

Although, she doesn’t do ALL the mechanic work on the car (her son helps) she does do all the driving.

Just incase you might think that is nothing (why we all drive cars) ….look at this–THREE PEDALS and a Brake…that’s it!  That’s all you get, folks!  She explained how you do it, but I forget.  Anyway…what a hoot!  I just love her independence, lack of fear, and desire to share with those around her really neat car!

Your friend,

Linda
