goodbye

My parents loved their view of the buttes. It seemed only fitting to have one last image of the Model A in front of the house with a butte (Lover's Leap) in the background. I sent everything related to the Model A off with the buyers ... extra wheels, an extra engine block, a couple of old radiators, a headlamp or two, loads of bits and bobs, as well as the original trunk. Dad did not refinish that trunk, but I believe the new owner will. You can see it in front of the Model A.

This couple has a love of airplanes, as does my husband, and we bonded over their many refurbished old airplanes. This will be his first refurbishing of a car. He told me he would send me a picture of it sitting next to his WWII Stearman bi-plane. I look forward to that!
A wonderful candid capture with a superb view!

What an amazing story and image. I love that you've kept it in colour, but with a hint of sepia, lending it an old worlde feeling. Quite beautiful and I hope the car enjoys its new home. I've a feeling it will.

I'm sure these are hard days parting with the past. A comfort knowing the next owner will care for it.
