When I was in school. Our lunch cost 35 cents. I would stop by the town's news stand each month and buy the new Drag Cartoons mag, with my lunch money.

Just looking at page after page of old car magazines I see so many that I have sitting in boxes in my shop and even thought I have not looked at them in years I cannot even think about what will happen to them when I am gone.

My wife tells me when you are gone all those boxes are getting put in the dumpster!
For me the memories in each and every one of these magazines is priceless.
I grew up without many things so I always saved everything because it really reminded me of those times.

Today I have more money they I will ever need in my life time and yet I find it hard to let go of things!
