Depending on your age.....probably determines if you have had any unusual coincidences in life. They can be funny or serious or sad. I have had several that fall into the different categories.
I figured I would start this thread off with one that is funny or at least it brought back nice memories for me. Its even car related. I will have Mr AMC Guy post a photo when he gets a chance. Maybe 3 years ago I was at a major swap meet not sure which one and a local vendor had a huge table set up with framed black and white copies of old photos that he was selling. One caught my eye immediately. It showed a Sinclair H-C gas station that sat on one of those narrow corners that comes to a point. I knew that gas station because back around 1963-64 I worked there. The station is long gone its Subaru dealership now. I had a 1954 Ford coupe when I worked there. I worked alone from around 6 pm daily until I closed the station at 11 at nite. I remember installing a Hurst 3-speed shifter in my car using the lift. With my limited skills I was one of those owners that needed the huge floor shift boot to cover the hole I put in the tunnel to clear everything! I bought the framed picture as it turns out the guy selling the pictures his father owned the station back then! Lets hear one of your coincidences. I got more to share but that is an opening one. [email protected] Case your wondering for any local readers this gas station sat at the south end of Jenkintown, PA Bryner was below it, Lord & Taylor was across the street Subaru dealership I believe is Glanzman Subaru. |
