Jack Douglass Open House? Well not really....

I used to date a girl who worked at John & Pat Hartneys old place,The Cypress Restaurant,just a few doors east of you Bill.
I would pick her up & drop her off constantly in my 72 Chevelle back then...We used to like to park in the lot of the Ole Graue Mill alot too. ...That is up until the car Bomb went off in that Mercedes 380SL off the Ogden/294 ramp..

I still have quite a few "Classic Motors" descriptive used car ads saved from my old Hemmings Motor News issues.
You sure did by alot of ad space back then.

------John and Pat were friends of Jacks and at one point gave us both of their Mercedes to sell. They both had huge engines and some sort of air-ride that was broken. I raced a Mustang with one of them after we got the suspension pumped up one day and absolutely smoked him.
------I was at lunch with my lawyer the day that bomb went off. When I tried to go back to work the area was all cordoned off. I lived nearby as I said and went home instead and then walked up to the scene from the back side. I have never and hope to never see anything like that again. The engine was over 50 feet from the explosion........Bill S
