It wasn't a Nash Rambler, it was a Nash Metropolitan. But these days I mainly use the Hispano-Suiza when I venture out, though the water pump is about to go out and getting a new one (for a 1937 Model Speedster) will be something of a challenge, I'm afraid. AutoZone stopped stocking them about 40 years ago.

Dude ... It's been a while since I've read anything of yours, but things must be going well for you. You've hired a chauffeur for the Nash Rambler?

Yes, I generally leave the driving to my chauffeur while I huddle in the back seat with my eyes closed. Of course, I do that whenever we venture out in public, construction or not.

Far more frightening is navigating between the concrete Walls of Death bordering the one lane construction zones that have wandered up and down the I-40 corridor since time immemorial.
