2014 LA Roadster Show Cross Country Trip

Talked with Chad Adams today (Adams Hot Rods..Calhoun, Ga.)...don't know how many, but they're going to try and hook up somewhere on the way.....Also, I'll get the Headlight decals and windshield banners mailed out tomorrow

 

W/S Banner and H/L tag looks great Donnie

 

I've been looking at different routes. I'm thinking route 80 out from Maryland and route 40 back. But I'd like to get some driving done on the loneliest road (rt 50) in Nevada too. But it's all subject to change and if I get the 40 back together in time!

Where is this road located.......and Don (da34guy), are we going down it on our way to LARS

 

That's an east / west highway in central Nevada, been on it a few times.
Great road in the middle of BFE if ya want 2 open er up for miles and miles and miles.
We won't be anywhere close to it Donnie.

 

We drove that road in 1978 on the way back from MERCED NSRA. Started out from RENO, ended up in UTAH. Saw a sign that said No gas for 115 miles, also didnt see many other cars. Had to wait for cows standing in the road. Nice scenery if you have plenty of time. Henry

 

Great Pic Henry,
Was on that road bout 3 years ago,
thimk the same herd of cows is still out there,
hit a "Fresh Pattie" about a buck ten.
Took 5 -6 miles for the smell 2 go away.

 

I hope to be joining you in Tulsa.....keeping my fingers crossed.

 

You've gotta go now...Don already has your Windshield Banner and headlight sticker.......Your obligated now......or at least that's a good excuse to use.

 

First I have to get the car here to Oklahoma from Maryland.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using H.A.M.B. mobile app

 

Anyone going from the Gulf Coast area?

 

Hey Donnie,
I'm gonna get blocks of rooms reserved here in Duncan and Prescott, how many do ya need?
Are you coming alone or is the other guys you said might come coming.
If yer traveling alone, you and I could split rooms goin out.

Like the top...also like the trunk handle.....that trunk handle should have been a factory option...hehehe

 

Here it is with side panels....

 

Now that's what I'm talkin about Donnie.
Still want those BFG 345-55/17's
Both buyers said the usual, ya know
"Checks in the mail"
Must gone to the moon first.

 

The guy backed out on buying my 15x10's and tires so I've decided to just pass up on the deal for now........the wind could blow from a different direction tomorrow and my mind could change...............right now I have everything in place for the trip to LARS, so I hate to start making changes.......I have both the 5 Window and the Roadster ready, but planning on taking the Roadster
