Default The All Deuce Run (coverage)
We had a great turn out this year despite the rain Friday evening with 31 Deuces showing up Saturday morning at the starting point.

Our friend and fellow deuce owner Tom always has his camera ready and took these photos. HRP

Not every one but a good many do,we had guys DRIVE from Florida,Connecticut,Virgina,Georgia,North & South Carolina.

We don't worry about the tires,engines,paint or upholstery... This is a driving event with no attitudes,just guys & gals having fun with Deuces! HRP

Vic - you know I was there and the roadster is actually from Tappahanock, not far from me. I had heard there was a third but I cannot confirm that.

As far as I know I was the only flattie to do the tour from start to finish - the roadster owner had some personal business to take care of and did not do the whole tour .... a real nice guy BTW by the name of Birch ...

Boy....Looks like a good time to me! Would you happen to have a picture of the red Tudor Sedan that is shown in the second row (2nd picture I believe). Looks very much like mine!

Thanks,
Pat

That particular photo was used as a publicity photo for the upcoming 2014 run,Buster Henderson built the car for a Doctor.The photo was taken in 2013.

I will go back and see if I can find a photo for you. HRP

It was down this year from last,we only had 31 show up,,I suppose the rain Friday night might have caused the drop in attendance and the fact that this is the 50 year anniversary for LARS so a lot of guys that are normally part of our merry band missed the run and saved the gas money for their upcoming road tour.

We saw a lot of new faces and cars along with many old friends that attend every year.

I honestly think 2015 will be our biggest event,I have already heard from several guys that missed it this year. HRP

We spoke briefly I believe and I'm sorry we did not get a chance to talk some more .... btw, my car is a modified 5 window, not a cabriolet. The modification was done before I bought the car ....
