This was the image prompt > PHOTO PROMPT – Copyright – Jean L. Hays> and below is what my imagination made of it in 100 words.
I was left at the side of the road by my owner when he ran me out of oil.
Left to rust away and die.
The local teenage punks were hiding inside me puffing away on their foul smelling cigarettes.
Then one day a tow truck turned up, he was all shiny and smug.
I thought for sure I was going to the junk yard to be crushed.
I was taken to a restoration shop.
My engine got rebuilt, interior replaced and my body painted and polished.
I look brand new again. All thanks to my new owner, The Restorer.
Friday Fictioneers is a challenge set by Rochelle Fields where writers around the world create 100 word stories inspired by the one image. For more information see: http://rochellewisofffields.wordpress.com/2014/11/05/7-november-2014/

He’s (I’m assuming it’s a he – may be wrong) a good person, The Restorer! Can I have the phone number; I have a few cells myself that need restoring.
🙂 yeah I had a man in mind 🙂
I like the ‘shiny and smug’ towtruck – nice description. I’m glad the car got a second chance; we all need those.
I like the new lease on life bit. well done.
