Guess it was just a senior moment (or all those bushwackers)since I remember the honour bar! It indeed was a Lincoln and took one peek at an old pix and realized his name was Bob! He also had a big stuffed shark that was used in a movie - "Old Man and the Sea" maybe? Those were the days lol

We used to sit in his honor bar enjoying cold beers and sticking our dollars in the cigar box with the rock on top of the bills to keep them from blowing away. That car used to sit inside the building there. I guess they finally moved it to make room for more tables. Dem wa da days!

But I guess it's true... you guys wouldn't fabricate a story like that. I saw that car a couple of years ago and didn’t believe the story that went along with it!
