While visiting my family in Jackson, Tn., my rental car was dented in a parking lot at the mall. Of course, whoever did this, did not leave a note and I was then responsible for the repair to the rental car company I did not purchase the insurance the rental car company offers on their vehicles, so I would be responsible for the repair and all the costs of renting the vehicle while it was out of service. Jimmy's mother in law, my cousin, Carolyn Tomlin, knew that Jimmy would help me if he could. So, off to Brownsville we went. I parked the car and went inside the tire store to find Jimmy. He said to show him the dent, and when I went to show him, it was gone!!! Somehow, he had fixed it that quick. It was amazing and I was so grateful! Jimmy was really a miracle worker, and he will be greatly missed.

I remember shortly after getting involved in the Tennessee Trash Car Club back in the 70's I met a guy who would turn out to be a life long friend... Along came Jimmy Coulston to help me on a 55 Chevy that my dad had just bought us. I was keeping it in a building off of Somerville Hwy. and needed someone to get underneath and clean all the years of grime and dirt off and paint it... Who do you think came to my rescue but Jimmy and he spent many hours on a creeper with a putty knife, steel brush and paint cleaning that car for me thus beginning a friendship that has lasted for years. Then one Sat nite in Jackson TN I let Jimmy talk me into drag racing my Trans Am at the Jackson Dragway against his car. I really had alot of fun that nite until Sunday when dad found out and who came to my rescue well Jimmy again and he got me out of trouble. He was a great friend and will truly be missed.
