    In our case we are right now in Reno. After some cooling problems and a damaged thermostat yesterday, we visited the Summit shop and Miller's Chop Shop. The brothers have some nice cars

    The same day we saw the harrah's automobile collection. The cars over there were awesome. Not many kustom cars, but a lot of history..

  11. WOW, what a great trip for you two crazy kids. AND, doing it in a Rocket Ship, makes it all that better. Love me some Oldsmobile's!!
    A few break-downs always keeps things interesting and you meet the nicest people that way. Thanks for sharing. Will you ship the car to Germany, from California??

    T.M.F. (too much fun) you guys are having way to much fun I wish I could just dive in the computer screen and join you too , if by any strange chance you all come out east like Florida I would be very happy to show you what little we have in the Tampa Bay area, We need to get Fla on the map so to speak the west coast has a lock on hot rods and such I guess Florida is more a 2 wheel state it took me over a year to find a quality AD truck I can only imagine how scrounging parts will go,,,,,BTW if you all make it this way message me or make a post that states so and I will show you all around , and enjoy the rest of your travels....

    The drive over the Golden Gate Bridge on our way from Sacramento to San Francisco was awesome. But then the shit started again. While driving high in the streets and down the idle turned high. It was not a big thing but if you are the first time there, you want to enjoy the view and not to think the whole time about the car ;)

    We also visited the shop of Roy Brizio

    Very nice `40 Willys Coupe! Has it a steel body or is it GFK?
    It seems, there is a lot of good stuff on the west coast....

    Stuff for many many further years of rodding and kustomizing ;-)
     
  21. you're having a nice trip over there, wow, plenty cool stuff to see. Have fun and stay safe, greets from the old world..

    We drove in 2 days from San Francisco to L.A. The sun was shining ( that's not usual for a german ;) ) and we could enjoy the nice view. We even saw some wales. But while watching the wales we had to fix a new problem. Cause a day without any problems is a boring day.. Through the vibrations, the exhaust had a cut and that's why we took the exhaust off. For me was it fun to drive the mountains up and down without mufflers on the Highway one, but I think the other cars wished we drive into the next wall :D there also stopped a Vw T2 and a Ford thunderbird at the same time if they can help while we were repairing the mufflers. Fucking Kool classic car guys!
