[PRCo] The Jones Car

[Fred Schneider]

Car 4398 looked almost too good yesterday ... Ed and I were looking  
at it and I remarked that it probably never looked that good, even  
brand new ... that there never was room in the rear world for  
perfection.   Ed's words were that cars were built to "workman-like  
quality" and Justin's work is a grade higher than that.  The inside  
and out of 4398 shines like a baby's behind.     Somewhere in the  
process the old bronze castings for the handles for the seat backs  
were lost.   When I was there yesterday brand new ones were being  
ground down from rough sand castings to a mirror polish to be  
installed on the seats.   Striping shound be finished in the next  
week or so and then the body can be jacked up again, the trucks  
removed, and the remanufactured motors installed for the May 2nd  
rollout.
