In one of our all time favorite “One Piece at a Time” by The Man in Black, a.k.a Johnny Cash, a guy working on a GM assembly line uses his big lunch box to take home a part of the car he’s working on, every day. And for the big ones, he uses a friend’s RV.
The car you see above is the “official” one, since it was built specifically to promote the song. The work was executed by Bruce Fitzpatrick (far right on the picture) of Abernathy Auto Parts and Hilltop Auto Salvage in Nashville, TN.
Another one was built by Bill Patch (!) along with the Lions Club of Welch, Oklahoma, to raise funds to build a new civic auditorium. Mr. Cash himself came to the town to perform and thus help the fundraiser. The car can be seen at the Historic auto attractions museum in Roscoe, Illinois.
