Yes, that Chicken Ranch. It's La Grange's claim to fame. Broadway made a
play about it. Hollywood made a movie about it. ZZ Top wrote a song
about it. Here is the real story.
In addition to being a connoisseur of classic automobiles, Lance is also a
pilot. He flies a 1949 Aeronca Champ. He even has an airstrip right next to
the T-Bird shop. Take a look.

The "LUV BRD" is Lance's pride and joy (next to his lovely wife Pam, of
course). LUV BRD is a 1957 Thunderbird which he acquired in 1972.
