Fifty Four Willy's














It sat alone in an old wood garage.
Its engine long silent.
I found it one day.

Painted green with white top.
Covered with dust.
Nose coned,
hump fendered,
like a stretch Henry J.

I painted it black.
New tires all around.
Filled it with Casite.
Drove it to town.

  1. Had a speed knob and foot-shaped accelerator pedal. If I remember correctly the clutch could be fun.

  2. It also had small Confederate flags on the vent windows. Good recollection. Pappy
