Off the G-body topic but thought you might like these pics.

Yesterday afternoon after the Cars and Coffee meet I had to run up to Waco. My oldest son was in Dallas all weekend and my brother-in-law ran him to Waco for a hand-off, since Waco is about halfway between Dallas and Austin.

We met at the original Dr. Pepper Factory, which is now a museum. Neat place, especially for someone addicted to Diet Dr. Pepper....

One of the more interesting things was the building was heavily damaged by a big tornado back in 1953, and when it was re-built the bricks used turned out to be a lighter color. On the side of the building you can see exactly where the tornado hit. Kinda neat.

Nabbed some pics, enjoy!

Nice pics, man!
That building is a beautiful piece of architecture. Your Roadmaster looks cool in front of it. Also love the old Dr. Pepper truck.
