In 1965 our family moved from small town to a little 20 acre place in country. Folks bought place on land contract from older gentleman. The place was abandoned. In one of the sheds was a 1932 Chevy doodlebug. The older gentleman told my dad that it must stay with the place. Dad tinkered with it, got it running.
