CAR #1: 1965 Ford Falcon Futura
CAR’S NAME: She's never actually had an official name. I affectionately refer to her as the "Millinium Falcon" every now and then.
CAR SPECS: 2 Door Hardtop, 240 straight 6 engine, Cruise-o-Matic transmission, white with red interior

I’M SO IN LOVE WITH MY CAR THAT...
Up until I bought my Buick a few months ago, my Falcon was the only car I'd ever owned. I bought her when I was 18 years old and she was my daily driver for almost 12 years. I am proud to say in all those years I've only had to tow her one time when she needed a new carburator.

CRAZY CAR STORY:
I've actually "known" my car for even longer. My good friend Tom owned her first and picked me up in it on his 16th birthday to go cruising. Later he sold her to my friend Sam who used to drive me to high school in it everyday. We had 1st period auto shop together and we'd use the Falcon for all the projects we had to complete. I learned to fix her before I even owned her!  After we graduated and Sam found out I was looking to buy a car, he told me the Falcon was for sale. SOLD!

CAR #2: 1952 Buick Special
CAR'S NAME: Haven't really had her long enough to have come up with a name...but sometimes she feels like a Betsy to me.
CAR SPECS: Original straight 8 engine, Dyna Flow transmission, air bag suspension

I’M SO IN LOVE WITH MY CAR THAT...
I'm already planning my Buick tattoo! Despite having my Falcon for so long, I have ALWAYS wanted an early 50's Buick and I finally got her. She's my diamond in the rough, but she is soon to be painted and beautiful.

CRAZY CAR STORY:  
I haven't really had her long enough to have anything too "crazy" happen! But I am crazy about her....

HOW DID YOU BECOME A BELLE?
I was always at car shows and various functions with my husband (who knew a couple Belles). He introduced me and from then on I'd look forward to running into them. After awhile they asked me to prospect and of course I said yes!
