Does anyone remember a GMCer that went by Duck Metz around Charleston, SC? His
wife was Edith.


Used to pull hotrods and show cars around the country behind 1977 Kingsley

Billy,

First off, how are you doing?

Re: Duck Metz. I've been in Dixielanders since '98 but never heard of
him. The only member I recall from Charleston is Charlie Toole who's
probably been gone from earth for 12+ years. He helped me install new
front wheel bearings at Bean Station in '00, including Zerks, long before
most thought of it. He was an old hard-hat diver. One of the ones
everyone REALLY misses.

Sorry, us Old Codgers tend to wander off on tangents.

Wandering off on tangents is a good thing, Ken. Due to CRS, we won't
remember it anyway. (grin).

Nubie on Facebook came up with his own version of new bag system.
Inherited coach. Very nice, always kept inside, ragusa, vents, mostly
veey .ice original. Thought surely someone would know them.

He'll be around a while. I'll guide him to the Dixielanders.

I purchased Charlie Tooles coach from his wife Nell. It's been a great coach!
