Funny, but friends of mine had the same thing happen to their '65 Ford Wagon.ย  A questionable cigarette left by a young family member (who denied any involvement) was believed to cause the slow smoldering burn of the front seat/carpet area after the car was closed up.ย  Fortunately, the damage was confined to the front seat, carpeting, and headliner.ย  ย It was noted that no monkeys were present at the scene.

Thank you Pete......as you know,all of my stories are fact based (and hard hitting)......we often change the year,make and model to protect the innocent ๐Ÿ˜ or young family members who deny monkey affiliations

the Edsel in our story went on to receive a complete upholstery R&R at Gustav`s House of Fabrick......some of the procedures performed by Gus can be viewed in the upcoming panel

Oh my! Accordion in the AM. Makes me think of a bistro in Old Paree! Mom wanted me to play that squeeze box, so at about 7 or 8 she had me take lessons. To this day I have trouble listening to one. The teacher told mom, "He hates this instrument, why do you torture him?" I took up drums and never looked back! Cool ย
