Goodbye Ruby Thursday
I sold Ruby Thursday on Saturday. We are planning on moving into a smaller place. Like a Buddhist challenge, I need to let go: touch and go. Her new home has many admirers. Chris, the new owner, was very happy about getting Ruby. His mom loaned him $100, and she spent the afternoon vacuuming Ruby out after Chris brought her home. The Dad is quite into Ruby as well, and Ruby will likely spend some time in Burien car shows. Chris's grandfather I remember from walks with Brenda. He would listen to classical music in the garden smoking a cigar and weeding. We watched him rebuild an old Ranchero (El Camino?) in his garage over the years. Here is a picture of the parts that Chris drove away with today. This includes the all of the parts I pulled off of Romeo as well as the 196 OHV engine and other auction parts I've gathered over the last few years:
