    Last minute road trip to Ohio to check a Model A with my friend who is the buyer. Car sounds like a good deal. Will be heading out after work today. About a 600 mile round trip and we both have to work in the morning. Should be a fun road trip.
     
  2. Good luck and safe travels this evening
    But Haha its gonna suck to be you guys in the AM

    Sorry you didn't get to see the La France Fire Truck engine it had duel spark plugs and every thing else. Would have been a very interesting Hot Rod motor.
     
  24. Looking forward to some pics of the coupe!!
