Happy Holidays!

Bah Humbug! ya bunch of Hot Rod hooligans.  I seen Santa at Walmart the other day. He was picking up a truck load of Kingsford. The bad thing is, he told me each RRTer gets one briquet in his/her stocking. The good thing is, there should be plenty of fuel for the BBQ trailer.

Oh, here it is...a little something I wrote in '99...before I bought my '40.
Enjoy:

All I Want For Christmas Is A Street Rod

Everyone's  cruising
and showing theirs at rod runs
I don't have one as you can see
I don't know just who
to blame for this catastrophe!
But my one wish on Christmas Eve
is as plain as it can be!

All I want for Christmas
is street rod,
a street rod,
see my empty garage!

Gee, if I could only
have a street rod,
then I could cruise in it
to Louisville in 2000
It would seem so nice if I could say,
"Which rod run are we cruising to this weekend?"

Gosh oh gee, how happy I'd be,
if I could only buy one

All I want for Christmas
is street rod,
a street rod,
see my empty garage!

Gee, if I could only
have a street rod,
then I could cruise in it
to Louisville in 2000
"Merry Christmas!"

I'm listening to Christmas music while I read your poem.  I definitely  caught the spirit you wrote it in.  Well, it looks like your wish came true and you're having fun.  Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas to everyone!!!

George,
Yes, I am enjoying it. Bought the original car in 2000; with a lot of help from my friends we turned it into a street rod; got it on the road in July 2003; now have over 11,000 miles on it!
