Re: Manual Focus Nikon Glass


It is with deep sorrow that I must communicate the passing of my 1991 suburban, A.K.A Moby Dick, I was 40 years young when she was born.
She served me well through many a desert trip, baja surfing expeditions, hunting and fishing, trailer towing, no place she could not get to. Doubled up as sleeping quarters too.
Solid Axles, big V-8, 9 miles to the gallon.

Moby was retired after 15 years and 180,000 miles, still fully functional. She lived in retirement for 15 years and passed quietly.

I was always happy to live in a place where I could keep old cars stashed under trees but the time came for her to go. Cannot become a hoarder of old stuff (other than me).

Here she is in early retirement, showing the offroading scars.

This week at her funeral.

Like most of us she grew mossy on the north side and will now enjoy the radiance of heaven.
