Okay, have you figured out that I’m not talking
about a girl? I’m talking about an old
flame……your old car you used to have, she was your baby, but now somebody else
is driving her?? You sold her, traded
her, etc…….it doesn’t matter the reason, the fact is, she’s not yours anymore! It’s a sad day after she is gone and you realize
you wish you had her back. I’m sure many
of you can relate to this.
The O-Jays in 1978 had a song titled “Used to be my girl” and it had a few
lyrics that will remind you of that old car you wish you had back! “I
respect her, when she was mine, I used to neglect her, she wanted more than I
could give……..And if I had the chance, I’d take her back, as a matter a fact,
right away, like today…..She used to be my girl”.
Yes, if we had the chance, many of us would love to
take back our old car that was our pride and joy! We would most likely treat her with more
tender care this time. Sometimes guys
are able to track down their old rides and are able to restore them to the way
they once were. Maybe you would do
things to it this time around that you did not have the time or funds to do
when you owned her before. Truth is that
with the internet, car clubs, car forums, and databases, you may find that it
is easier to find your old dream car. If
you are one of the lucky ones to get a second chance to own that “Old Flame”,
make sure you treat her with more respect this time!
