dear bus n kids

remarkable that one would post to green site the actuall making of a wreck
for a play ground ...

lets see ... my youth (the part that i regret) included jumping on a 1950
williys until the roof was flat against the top of the seats...
dismantling a 1960 austin woosley  simply to look at stuff...
same for a 1969 mercury montcalm

all sat in the back yard until we dragged to the woods ...

now my childhood lament  when i am with my friend who has two 1950 ford
customs (one a daily driver)
and a 48 mercury truck (also a daily driver and work truck and  100 %
original equipment )
now my child hood lament has become the green way to go ...
interesting ....

i hope they drained the oil out of all compartments ...
i hope the kid does not get a spring in the back of the leg...
hey who knows he might grow up
repower it nad make it go again ...
that would be a real green recycle story ...
yours
