For a long time I periodically charged the battery and started it up, and inflated the tires. But finally the tires wouldn’t keep air more than an hour, and I hadn’t started the engine for about a year. So, I gave ‘er to my old friend Jim Vantuyl of Vantuyl Motors, and he arranged to have ‘er hauled to the car lot. Actually, he hauled it to Vantuyl Auto Center, where they put on some new tires, new fuel pump, new gas tank, and cleaned it up. I drove by the car lot on the way to work the other day, and they had it looking pretty good. Meanwhile, it still feels weird to go outside and see the empty spot in the driveway.
