You done started back doin' the things you used to do...
I greased the splines and bopped the hubs,
They won't fall off, no sir bub,
Spun 'em good and watched 'em shine,
They went 'round 'n 'round in a perfect straight line.
War wheels, why cain't you be true?
War wheels, why cain't you be true?
You done started back doin' the things you used to do...
A curb or two and three potholes later,
Had a shimmy at 60 and a shakin' at 80
If I'd seen Maybelline in that Coupe de Ville,
She'd have got clean away right over that hill.
War wheels, why cain't you be true?
War wheels, why cain't you be true?
You done started back doin' the things you used to do...

Remember Moss Motors

The good people at Moss Motors have been very generous in supporting our All British Show for the last several years. They are also enthusiasts who can tell you what you need as well as how to install the part. Please remember this next time you need parts and support for your LBC.

Tulip Time Trip

Marvin Marshall




Ten LBCs headed off from Lincoln, Omaha, Freemont, and Council Bluffs for three days of fun courtesy of Ken and Vicky Grant of Chareston, Iowa. Ken and Vicky had the usual band of suspects over to their beautiful lakeside home near Lucas (really), Iowa Friday evening for a wonderful patio party. Ken's backyard is cozy but spacious at the same time. Watching the moonbeams ripple across the lake and seeing the stars in the clear sky was like your own private Golden Pond.

The group unwound over drinks and Hor'-D'ours Vicky had prepared for us. The fresh fruit and vegetables, salsa and chips, cheese dip and Nachos, pickled herring, and a cheese ball filled with coconut, chicken, parsley, cream cheese, and nuts would be a buffet for lesser mortals. The Patrol, however, travels on its stomach so off to the country club for an evening meal of steaks and such. We retired to Ken's garage and Vicky's kitchen for coffee and homemade deserts. (I did find some empty HyVee bakery bags in Ken's garage but then he works for them.)
