Information recorded in March 2002:
This car is from California.  I'm the third owner.
This car has been sitting for 32 years.  It was won off of the TV show "This Is Your Life" by a guy from Long Beach, CA.  The second owner got her when she was 4 years old.
And at 44 years old, she found a good home and someone to love her.  So guys get ready.  We will be on the road before too long!
