Fresh from storage...



...is Cookie's Big Gay Oldsmobile.  BGO is freshly washed, and sometime this week is getting an old fashioned  paste wax job.

Last night was the husband's 50th birthday party and to celebrate BGO, which is also a 1962 model, was giving rides.  And because owning 19 feet of vintage fun is no fun unless the others get to have fun with it, guests were allowed to get behind the wheel and take her for a short spin.   All this, of course happened before the wine and beer flowed.

And what happened after guests decided to let their hair down as the right progressed?


They wanted their pictures taken in the trunk of the car.   I have many more damning photographs that I will be using in the future when favors are needed or sought from these people.

Hope your weekend was everything you hoped it would be!

    1. 100% original paint, interior, no rust on the frame. Under 25,000 original miles.

  4. Does it have the original radio?

    Have you added any additional stereo equipment and if so, what is a Cookie and his husband road trip playlist?
