Re: See the USA...in a Hemi-Powered Model A.
Brian,
First of all, it was great to finally meet you at the Round Up. Of course, the car looked absolutely bitchin' as always! I told you at the Round Up, but I'll tell you again.....thanks for documenting your hot rodding experiences for us. It takes time and effort to do it, but I think I speak for everyone here when I say that we really appreciate it! My apologies if I missed it in this thread, but do you have any high res photos of your trip available for download? My computer screen could use some inspirational wallpaper!!  Thanks a lot for documenting this incredible trip and I look forward to "riding along" on your next one.... Tommy

Bass - my employer would like to have a word with you for making me waste company time. But it was a hellova read. I'm truly envious. Hell, I was proud of myself for building a car that could make it from Dallas to Austin and back 2 years in a row...I feel rather small now. Great read. Hope to meet up with you sometime in the future. |

Re: See the USA...in a Hemi-Powered Model A.
Where do you end up staying for the night, and do you worry about theft when on trips?

Re: See the USA...in a Hemi-Powered Model A.
I seem to recall that maybe Sean did an interior for this car since then? And I'm betting it's been painted by now. I'm sure there's other threads on it but at this point, after you and your car bonded on this thread, a new picture seems appropriate HERE.

It's not painted yet. I took it apart to paint it last year, but put it back together so I could drive it to the Lonestar Roundup, and haven't been able to get it into paint since then.

Damned cool to see this thread pop up again! Elpolacko and I just got from our yearly ride to LARS and back, and we were recalling some of this thread on the way over. Spooky!

Re: See the USA...in a Hemi-Powered Model A.
 Hi Brian.Thanks again for an awesome thread.If you ever give up building rods,you have the potential for an excellent photographer/writer for one of the car mags.Thanks for the ridealong.Don`t know if the following is HAMB friendly,BUT,for easy cleanup of bug remains after a long days ride,try spraying some Pam(R) cooking oil on the frontal area such as the grill,bumper and ect.Makes cleanup real easy.Water hose and pressure nozzle.Reapply in the am before leaving on the next leg of your journey.Good luck.Have fun.Be safe. Leo
