John Reddie was just twelve years old when his mother bought him
his first car. It was a 1935 Plymouth rumble-seat coupe and cost
just $15. This was the beginning of his lifelong love of and
fascination with vintage American cars.
In this memoir, Reddie gives a glimpse of his life as he
reflects on all of the cars he's owned and all of the cars he could
have owned. From the misadventures to the successes, Cars I Loved
and Lost narrates a trip down memory lane-from the first car that
actually ran to the first car he actually drove. With a few repair
tips included, Reddie's story recalls fond memories through the
lens of the automobile.
"Apparently I am not alone in my fondness for these gems.
People invest considerable time and money into these cars, and why?
Well, maybe they share my appreciation for them, in other words;
they too grew up with these automobiles. They remind us of a
different time, back when we were younger and carefree, when our
biggest worry was having enough gasoline to get around for a day or
so, even though it cost twenty five cents a gallon."
