Remembering Our History

Anyone who has ever been a car enthusiast, at any point during their life, has fond memories of at least one vehicle from their past. Maybe the first "special" car or truck they ever owned, or one that just brings back the most memories from the days gone by.
For me, that includes many vehicles I have owned over the years. That's just typical for any life-long "car guy". But for many people, that number may be very few, maybe just one or two. For some, it's a vehicle that was special to someone else, other than just our self. I once owned an old Ford Bronco, pick-up cab model, that my grandfather had purchased new at least 20 years before I bought it from my dad. I only owned it for a couple years before I sold it and moved on to something else, but it still holds some special memories for me.
Just this past week, my son sold the 77 Bronco that was special to his son Caden, who passed away last month after loosing his battle with cancer. They owned that vehicle for less than a year, but it will always be remembered as "Caden's Bronco" by the whole family. It will be one of those fond memories for all of us.
We don't have to be a collector, and keep these vehicles, or put them away in storage, for them to be special to us. We have the photographs, and the memories. All we have to do is remember.
