Last Saturday, an old friend from St. Louis, Dick Carrol and five of his "road warrior" friends on there way to the LA Roadster show, stopped by for a visit here in Skiatook, Okla.a few miles north of Tulsa. After LA they plan to head up to San Francisco and then points west for a real western tour. Six guys in three roadsters and a killer coupe making us stay at home types jealous and looking kinda bad. We did load them up with some righteous Skiatook Okla. Bar-B Que, some firm handshakes, lots of best wishes and sent them on their way headed for Prescott on Monday morning As usual, I didn't remember any names so if any of you St. Louis guys want to chime in with names that go with these cars , feel free. Here's some pics of some truly nice cars.
jpbango, dick told me he has wanted to go to the roadster show for about 30 years, what a great road trip they will have. i believe renowned trimmer don albers is also with them among others also. i hope they take plenty of pics along the way. Al.
Was there to greet these guys. We had a good time talking to them. Super nice guys. Cars were remarkable. Hope the have a safe trip and a super time. Takes real guts to do a trip like this. _________________________________________________________________________ Like I told the kid, "Your music's not too loud, it's just like OKC, it sucks!"
Jerry Eckholdt owns the black duece 5-w hiboy and Dick Carroll owns the orange 34 hiboy. Had a chane to go with them but had too many things going on. Hope they have a great time.
