WoW- guess the Terrys have more in common than the first name, the Pirate namesake, and now a Crosley. When I was about 11 my uncle gave me a pretty beat 1947 Crosley. It would overheat if driven at road speeds so over the next two or three years I killed it driving up and down our orange grove for whatever excuse I could get. "Yes, Mom I'll go get some oranges or the fire wood at the end of the property". When the battery would die, Dad would push start me with his one cylinder Gravely garden tractor." I also remember Donna, not much of a problem in Fort Pierce. But my folks took a big truck of goods to the Keys and then to Fort Myers.
See ya'll soon
