Week 108: 1965 Mustang

RETRACTION!!

For the first time since DTC debuted, I'm going to do something I haven't done before.

I'm going to retract an entry.

Daddy's Tiny Cars is a blog diary, and as such shows the ups and downs of life, but nonetheless, it's also a mission statement of the future and on how I look at life.

I wrote a blog about about the possibility of never owning a restored muscle car, and the more I thought about it, the more that blog bugged me.

One, because the blog in retrospect came off as defeatist.
Two, because the blog lacked any real pizzazz.
Three, because I actually believe I will one day own a restored muscle car.

Seriously, the above Hot Wheels '65 Mustang deserves a more energetic blog. That is not a car for focusing on deficits. That's a car for kicking butt. Even as a tiny die-cast Hot Wheels, it doesn't take any whining. That is a car for action.

In that spirit, I've cut out the parts of the blog I felt were wimpy, and kept the good stuff.

Unfortunately, all I had left after cutting was the opening fragment of a sentence:

My five year old son and I were watching the Barrett-Jackson muscle car auctions on cable the other day, pointing out the cars we liked ...


Okay.

That's much better!
