Got my Penny back.
April 22, 2009, 10:55:26 PM
Some time ago I posted this message in another thread...
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gary, a friend of mine has been doing up an old Mustang convertible for a few years now.
Recently he was diagnosed with cancer, so he may never get the job finished.
He has taken it for one spin, just to try it. He reckons it was awesome.
I gave him my lucky penny pocket piece and told him I want it back when he is cured.
I hope he gets to enjoy many rides in that 'Stang.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well, today my friend walked into the shop and gave me my penny back.
He looked much better than I have seen him in quiet some time.
What's more he bought the 'Stang in too.
A beautiful blue hard top with silver stripes.
He reckons it is a monster to drive, very fast.
351W with 351C heads.
The project is not finished , but it sure looked good.

Now I know for sure, that my lucky penny really is lucky.

That's wonderful news Steve.

Similarities are remarkable.

I also am Gary.  The greatest car I ever owned was my Mustang convertible.  And, I have had three types of cancer, and am doing well.

 :D :D :D :D

I'm really glad to know that a penny has that much value in the world today.  :)   I'm very happy to hear that all of our Garys are getting better and not suffering due to horrible diseases.

Do add this coin to my collection?
