Art & Inspiration Did you drive your hot rod or custom this weekend?

I spent Saturday and Sunday helping Dave with the interior on my old beater but I still have another hot rod to drive while the Deuce is out of commission.

The weather was nice and the sun was shining for a change.

Did you get out and about this weekend? HRP

 

Took the p.u for coffee with my wife and two dogs

 

Beautiful weather Saturday but Did not as there’s still salt on the road from a recent snow squall. Did get one out quickly last week. Have to admit I’m getting itchy to be out there on a regular basis.

 

Ran over too a new show sunday AM,Kendall Al House,first time deal. Didn't know who would come. Amazed the turn out was about 60 cars WOW. Admit mostly new stuff,but about 15 pre 1965.
I'll see if any buddy's got pics,I can post. I have no camera.

 

Rain and snow Saturday... And freezing cold today..... I wish Spring would get here....

 

It wasn't too bad here this afternoon. I started the drive with the top down, but the air was a little too cold, so put the top up pretty quickly. It was nice to be able to drive my car again.

 

First ride of the season today...

 

Got about 90 miles in today. D

 

Nope, rain yesterday and woke up to all this white bullshit this morning.

 

Brought my '37 Chevy coupe home from Winter exile / storage on Friday......snowing today

 

Yes, because it's my primary car for now. Late yesterday went to the University farm area with the 32. Warmest day of 2019, so lots of tourists & students walking, jogging, biking, etc. A 21 yr old Engineering student graduating next month, talked with me for an hour. We met only because he stopped with his mountain bike and asked what year the car was. He said he's seen the car around UConn in the past.

Born in the Ukraine, he came to USA at age 9. He already has a job with an Aeronautical company since 8 months ago, and it is part of the United Technologies mega corporation. I learned a lot... about a lot. I go to scenic recreation places as I meet " friendly people who like living life", ... like being outdoors on a nice day.

I did not take a pic of where I parked yesterday, but just found this one from April 2018. I parked at that same exact crooked angle, in the exact same 3rd parking spot yesterday. Spooky or what?

 

Got up to 75 degrees Saturday, perfect day for my friend's annual garage party. 130 mile round trip. Scott Myers images.........

 

I got lucky and had my parking spot from a previous party.

Drove the p/u to coffee and a couple of yard sales this weekend but with the weather in SoCal I drive it almost everyday except when its raining (which it did actually do this year)

 

Roadster looks great! HRP

 

Thanks, Danny.

 

Yeah..over to our rented storage to grab a cooler.

 

I had mine out for two event Saturday. Benefit car show and later in the day local Cruise.

 

I drove the Y Brock Coupe about 220 miles round trip to the Coker Cruise In, mostly following my friend in his deuce roadster!

 

just around town . still working on bed.

 

..............Since you only teased us with the inside shot, I hope you don't mind if I include an outside image of the fabulous Y-Brock Coupe.

 

Can Wednesday and Thursday count? Out of town this weekend.

 

Why not? HRP

 

No. But I did get the helicoil in this hole, and most of the top of the engine back together.



Plates are valid tomorrow. Hoping to be driving next weekend.

Yes, got up to 60 today. Fired up the coupe and drove to town and back. Still a lot of snow in drifts and piles but the roads are clear and dry. Did a drive by my friends to see if he would get his 55 out but no response.

 

30 Degrees and snowing here. I think not until the salt is all washed away.

 

Been there,good you got it out. HRP

 

Put about 70 miles on the coupe the last few days. Highs were only in the upper 30s or low 40s.
Still sorting out bugs on the 39 Dodge pickup, but have run a tank of gas through it the last couple weeks. Still having issues with the speedo, so its not much fun guessing how fast your driving. Gene

 

I had a little trouble with my speedo but.....ah, nevermind
