Lucy is our 1987 Mazda 626 LX. The LX stands for luxury and that she has been with her power windows and electric sunroof. This vehicle has been in the family forever. I bought her from my sons mom many years ago after I wiped out on my motorcycle, and rejuvenated her with some major work.
This great old vehicle has played a pivotal role in my life. It continues to get Steph to work winter after winter and has almost 300,000 miles on her!
I’ve been struck lately by her fading paint, it’s almost like us humans losing our hair and going grey. Rust is happening everywhere and the power equipment that kept her windows up, is failing, but this bad-ass old girl keeps rocking on. (Click photo for more).
That is one great machine. She has brought me back home twice from Idaho. Thank you much Jim and Lucy.
