That car on the roof, it's one of the coolest things I have ever seen.

If you've never seen the adorable fiat, I believe that's the make of the car, on Cosmo's. Wait, I'm hearing it was once a Volkswagen bug? I didn't even realize it's a tow truck.

It's funny something we see every day, people just want to see it. Do you remember when the first time you saw the car was? I have friends that lived here all their life and have always seen that car.

So many of you also use it as a form of direction. When you see the car on the roof on Rt. 9, you're close to my house. Or, did you pass the car on the roof, yet?

I remember driving Rt. 9 through Bayville for the first time going to the Bayville WOBM Studios. I took pictures, I actually stopped at the auto place and took pictures, I had no idea what it was, but I knew my Dad would love to see it. When I moved to Bayville about 12 years ago, he always knew when he was close to my house when he'd see that car on the roof. It holds a special place in my heart because I knew my Dad loved it.

Do you remember seeing that cute car? I want to hear those memories or do you drive by it every day and not even think about it.
