Lab Mobile on August 24 2006.jpg

The "Lab" (aka Labrador) Mobile

Submission for the International Transport challenge

Pretty decadent to own a convertible, red one at that. In 1966, I fell in love with the red mustang convertible. After spending a summer caring for two women in the 40's dying of cancer, I splurged on the Lab Mobile. The back seat is usually devoted to the dogs.

Needless to say, it getting a good cleaning Friday night prior to picking up John and Sue Waine.
Can one ever get rid of all those dog hairs?

The very classic mobile and red is the best color to have if you're lucky enough to own one.

Love the at Black Dog MV sticker! English link here:http://www.pbase.com/johnwaine/image/63151793

Looking forward to meeting up tomorrow - please don't forget to bring some sunshine with you. It's like Manchester, England weather in Boston today! LOL

I don't think you can ever totally get rid of dog hair - but good luck
trying! Love the red!

That red Saab brings back great memories of the red Saab 900 Turbo I had when I met my wife 14 years back. Well done!

You can't beat a convertable in the summer, but I wouldn't fancy it in the winter.
Cool shot. :-)

Oh, great stuff Joan, that's the way to go . Live life now.
John won't care about the hair, he's a country lad.

Looks like a color coordinated collar too
Guest 24-Aug-2006 15:03
I've got this same sticker (much worse for wear after years in the weather and on a much less fun car). Nice reds.

I went and got my car cleaned in and out and put a full tank of petrol in for the family coming up earlier this month and the day they arrived the car broke down and was off the road for the next 9 days and the whole of their visit, doh!

And a Vineyard Lab to boot.
Don't worry about the Waines, by the time they leave the Vineyard they'll be carrying enough stray dog hair (from Thor and Rocky) they'll have one of their own, lol!
