    Changes to our web site!

    Our new layout is fully compatible with resizable text. If you are vision impaired you can make the text larger so it's easier to read. We felt it was very important to make our website resizable text compatible because of expectiations for higher levels of web accessibility. Also, our site is Cross-browser & iPhone compatible.

    We hope you enjoy your visit with us!

     

    Lucky will truly be missed, as a part of the Frit Car family.

    		It is with deep sorrow that we must report to you the passing of our beloved office pet, Lucky. Around 1994, Mr. Lanham found a kitten, abandoned in the bushes of his home.

    Feeling sorry for him, he was brought to Frit Car. Here, he was loved, spoiled, and ruled the office for almost 14 years.
