Can’t think of anything to write, maybe I gotta sharpen a pencil or something. The Edmonton Classic Sports Car Club is, however, in the midst of a terrible conundrum. Our Friday noon lunch stop, the “Route 99” diner on 99 street, initiated by Cam Bailey and friends back in the previous century, has ceased selling beer. When ace waitress Mel and/or her mother Donna were on shift, I could just walk in, sit down, greet the guys, and take a sip of my Kokanee, which was on the table before I could remove my jacket, and way before I would think to order a beer. Now what do I do? Have the girls bring me a glass of milk before I get settled? It just isn’ the same.

Not only for agreeing to be my mentor throughout my honors senior project, but for also suggesting valid points to make within my essay and final PowerPoint presentation that would better my research. I appreciate Professor Lillie for taking the time out of his schedule to meet with me during his office hours to discuss ideas and interesting facts that would be essential to crafting my essay. I would also like to recognize my cousin Neleze Meadows for helping me in narrowing down my broad topic to solely focusing on the evolution of Ford auto-motives. My cousin helped me chose an automobile company that has had the biggest transformation from beginning to end, and is continuously still growing in the 21st century. With the help of both my mentor Professor Lillie and my cousin Neleze Meadows, once again thank you for your input towards devising my Honors Mayor College senior project. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS Abstract..........................................................................................................................................
