Far Guy got the new boot installed on his old car Tilly. The boot is filled with grease and it protects the drive shaft from costly repairs. Although Far Guy says it was an expensive fix. I replied "old cars are expensive."
We went out for breakfast and ran a few errands while she was being worked on. Afterwards Far Guy filled her up with the proper gas...premium.
So other than some polishing the old car Tilly is ready to go to car shows this summer.

Sounds like Tilly is ready to rock!
ReplyDeleteTilly is a filly! A pretty one too. She’s greased up and ready to run!
ReplyDeleteI have a dream of getting a classic car or truck, but for now, that is just a dream. Maybe after the garage is done and my checkbook recovers.
ReplyDeleteGlad to know Tilly is ready to be shown.
ReplyDeleteGood morning...I always enjoy seeing pictures of old Tilly. Old cars can be expensive, but they sure are a pleasure to have and enjoy..
ReplyDeleteTilly will look beautiful at any car shows she goes to. Our community has First Fridays on Main each month, and a "show and shine" is part of the fun. Lots of wonderful old cars have been lovingly cared for, restored, and enjoyed.
ReplyDeleteI always enjoy seeing old car that have been restored. I wish I had the tools and the space to do such work.
ReplyDeleteCar shows are a good summer activity.
ReplyDeleteNice to see her on the road!
ReplyDeleteI love this old 🚗 car. Here in Montreal we have a landmark...the Orange Julep that has been here for decades. They have events at times where people bring their old cars to show off, celebrate and compare.
ReplyDeleteYou guys will have fun sharing her at car shows!
ReplyDeleteTilly is a pretty car! They don't make them like that any more. Everything is utilitarian.
ReplyDeleteThat's a nice car!
ReplyDeleteLOVE your CAR!!! Our first car show to visit (we don't take a car we just go look) is April 26th
ReplyDeleteYay for Tilly, and Far Guy!
ReplyDeleteTilly sounds like a real gem.
ReplyDeleteBoy does she look spiffy!!! And what a beautiful day to have her out and about!
ReplyDeleteAnd tilly is looking terrific too!
ReplyDeleteThanks! Now I have some idea what a boot is. (Notice I didn't say I know--lol!)
ReplyDeleteTilly will shine at the car shows. :)
I thought when I read Tilly got a new boot that Tilly got a new trunk! She is a beauty.
ReplyDeleteI still can't get over that Tilly was my nickname in high school. Glad your Tilly got oiled up and is ready to go. Yes, all old things are expensive! LOL!
ReplyDeleteI still say Tilly is such a beautiful ol' gal of a car! She's lookin' gooood!
ReplyDeleteYeah Tilly is ready for the shows! Hope to see her there!
