A Little Red Sports Car?????



I drive a big old honkin suburban and I've dreamed of having a little red sports car to zip around in. Well, Sweet Farmer has been bored. It has rained a lot, you see, and when it rains on a hay farmer, there's not much he can do but wait. Waiting is hard during farming season. So the man just needed a diversion. So he bought a little red sports car. He spent $400.

He had to work on it an hour to get it to start.




Not exactly what I had pictured.


But I hear it is getting a make-over in the shop as we speak. All it needed was a new fuse to run like new. They are cutting the top off, putting new tires on, recovering the seats, a lift-kit possibly, a hydraulic system that will raise the bed in the back. What bed? Oh, yeah, they will fashion a bed to go on the back. And WALL-AH!! A fancy little farm vehicle that will haul things and zip around. A perfect car to teach my grandsons to drive. A fun wagon that Sweet Farmer will run by and pick me up to check on pecan orchards and turn our pivots off and on, and check our crops, and take Sunday snoop drives around other's farms..... A car I can spit sunflower seeds out the window and prop my feet on the dash.


Funny, I guess it was exactly what I pictured after all.

It's little, red, and built for sport utility...what more could you ask for in a little red sports car? I think it's awesome; happy motoring! (You may need new sunglasses and a hat to go with your new car!)
