When Jose retired after forty plus years of work he had plans of restoring his old
Chevy Panel. He had been slowly working on it over the years and was looking forward
to all the extra time he was going to have to ‘get busy’ on it.

What he didn’t know was his son had other plans for him!

Jose’s family and friends gathered for his retirement party, and his son drove down
from Northern California for the weekend and brought his enclosed trailer with him.
When Jose went to help his son ‘unload’ the trailer he found his ‘retirement gift’,
this 1954 Chevy Bel Air his son had gotten for him!

It has the 235 six cylinder engine with two one-barrel carbs, automatic transmission,
two-tone paint, baby moons, and chrome for miles!

Is Jose enjoying retirement? Well, ask him when you see him…if you can get him to
stop smilin’ long enough to talk to you!

Happy Retirement Jose!
