Ron Ananian The Car Doctor

In this episode of Ron Ananian, The Car Doctor, Ron shares a story about a longtime customer, Larry, who recently decided to purchase a classic car. Initially, Larry was interested in a 1963 Corvette, but he ended up buying a 1967 Volkswagen Beetle instead.

Ron reflects on the nostalgia and joy that old cars like Larry’s bring, emphasizing how classic cars are more than just transportat
