Wow......can't believe the mild weather this weekend...last year at this date we had snow big time! I had the the good fortune to get out on some back roads with some HAMBers and check out some kool shop projects. Here's some pic's of all of us at the back of the old diner on old HWY 3.
Great weather, great people, full tank of gas and some open road......alot of fun for a late Nov. day in Ontario!! Here's afew pic's of the projects some of us checked out. The 58 Chevy Convert belongs to Mal Quick and it's hard to believe this car started in the car being dragged home in two halfs....lol... and the 32 Ford is Pete "the tank" Panzer's which was a old drag car from Cayuga Raceway.
Couple more shot's of some HAMBers rides in the fall sunshine......the Falcon wagon of "Shaggin" and the very low 55 Chevy of "Johnny Angel".
I had my 57 out the past three day's.. Temp's around 50 or so durring the day and dry.. it got pretty cold at night without a heater, but it was pretty cool driving around in an old car and seeing christmas light's on houses with no snow.......especially at this time in upsate NY....
Cool pics FE, Weather is unreal up here near Fergus. I had more mundane things to do today like install my snow blower on my 8N. Old highway 3 brings back memories as I used to live in T-burg and would cruise out to St Thomas and London on occasion... Stu
That's just nasty poncho.......that's the type of weather we should be getting this time of the year with about 4 weeks to Christmas.......sorry bro!!
You have to love that main drag in Tillsonburg VirgilHilts.......makes me think of the way it was back in the sixties with those wide streets and neon signs!! Did you ever drink at the Royal when the french tobacco pickers were in town?......talk about wid times!! At least were dryer then poor poncho!!
I took the roadster out today to watch all the bikes doing the toys for tots parade,,,,,the news tonight said that there were over 6,000 bikers ,,,, I dunno how many there were but I sat and watched the bikes scoot past a fast clip and it took about 45 minutes with a police escort and both lanes full,,,,impressive to say the least,,, BTW,,,I rode my a 56 panhead in the 1st. tots for tots here in Anderson,,,,28 years ago,,,,there was only 33 riders then,,,HRP
We should be getting some snow this time of year also. We had dusting a few days ago but it was gone before noon. I keep telling my wife "I wish this were the coldest day of the winter" knowing full well there will be many tons of snow to shovel before the grass turns green next year. In the meantime I'm going to enjoy EVERY day above 32* Frank
