If you lived in/near Guymon for a long time, I bet you either knew or knew of my biological father (or my half sister and her late husband and their son who ran the dealership later) down the road a ways across the Texas line.
Where and what dealership did your family have? I can almost call n/w Ark and Guymon both home. If a dealership in Guymon didn't have a part we needed, and a neighboring dealer did, we'd go there. Our family has had ties in both places for many years. My dad's folks went there in 1894 and homesteaded. We still have it with some more added that joins it. When asked how they survived both "dust bowl" and "depression", they would grin and reply. "We never could decide if it was "determination or stupidity!!!!
