Wayne Carini A-400

[BRENT in 10-uh-C]

Logan & Jordan are correct in their defense of Bill's car, ...but it does make someone wonder what has happened to us as A drivers over the years. Today, it seems like A/C is a must-have in some parts of the country if we are to enjoy our cars. So it begs the question, is it hotter now in our cars than it was 30 years ago on tour, --or some 80 years ago?

Naturally is would seem that if it is indeed hotter (--or more humid) in today's times, then modifying an 'A' for A/C sure seems like the right way to go. On the other hand, in the dead of summer you will see the Model-T clubs touring in their cars with temps in triple-digits and the heat index over 130, ...and these folks (many of them elderly) never have an A/C in their car. Adding to that, many of the earlier AACA & HCCA-eligible cars tour during the hot summer months without having any type of air conditioning too. Definitely not arguing Logan or Jordan's point because I would not want to drive in S. Texas summer weather in a Model-A without an Air Conditioner, ...but then again, anymore I guess I don't enjoy driving a Model-A all that much either.


Logan, your comment about Bill owning more A400s than anyone did make me nod in agreement with you, as he and Curtis Foster owned several together over the years, ...but I also have two other A400 owners that come to mind that very likely could give Bill Coleman a run for his money in that regard. One of those other guys frequents here on occasion and is also named Bill.
