Event Coverage Hot Rod Hillclimb, here we come!

Ive been looking forward to this event all summer, its just such a fun event, the cars are great the location is amazing, its just a great deal overall.

this will be my 3rd year going, i always try to take a different car, first year i took my channeled 32 roardster, last year my 32 five window, this year i pulled my survivor 36 3 window coupe out and got it fully roadworthy and am taking it, the car has been sitting for roughly 50 years so this event will be its maiden voyage (ill be trailoring it to the event) but will stretch its legs once we get there.

somewhere before the car was put into storage it had been raised up in the rear pic above is the way it say when i got it, below is a pic from roughly 1960, alot lower in the back

so here it is now with a altitude adjustment

when i first pulled it out of the barn i got it running and driveway driving but now i finally went thru it the rest of the way and its roadworthy, well i need to test drive it!

my buddy Mike had talked about getting his 32 roadster together for the hillclilmb, the car was made up of some original parts and some b-ville pieces, he still need to order a few more brookville parts for it and the sheet metal was basically in a pile 0n ground, well last week weds we decided to bust ass on it and get it to the hillclimb, we worked on it for 3 days at my place and got it pretty close, he took it home to finish up brakes and wiring and got it going but the clutch is bad so the motor is out as of tonight and i will be heading over there tomorrow am to help it get it all back together and go for another test drive.

We have a couple more days to get it going, well be leaving weds afternoon, see ya out there!
