the old ads are neat. i have boxes of old magazines and it's fun to leaf thru them and look at the items along with cars that were sold and the prices in the sixties. we collect original sunbeam literature. we have 400+ pieces. i also have a very understanding wife that digs thru everything vendors have when we go to places like the import at carlisle. she has found some nice odd sunbeam and hillman literature. she found two venezia brochures at hershey a couple years ago.

The Leash is Getting Snug
Gee, my bride is even more wise and won't let me visit shows & meets solo because "you already have enough (bleeped) in the barns". amen
when we were younger my wife would go to the swap meets and dig for parts with me, as she has gotten a little "wiser" she has rethought that and now stays home or visits our grandson.

i don't know what you guys have done wrong, but for a small fee i'll tell you how to keep her involved. it's not that hard to do. every few weeks i take the wife to the shop that is doing the work on the series 4 so that she can give her approval on the work that has been done. she even allows me to display rare nos parts and memorabilia in the house. we have photos of the cars in every room except for the utility room and one other room. the problem is that that they will claim that the cars belong to them if you get them to this point. she does allow me to use her trailer and tow vehicle sometimes but only if we're not taking one of her cars.

If only, my lady tolerated the 9 year restore of the Alpine. Then a stop while I converted an old bus to a RV. Then bought a bigger Coach from O/S and converted it to a RV. Had a break for a while, and then bought a pranged (damaged) Tiger and shipped it O/S to us. Now restoring.
Now she gets a bit peeved (bloody mad) if I mention visiting a swap meet.
