Default great time at the Coker Tire cruise in
We had a great time hosting our 2nd Coker Tire/ Honest Charley cruise-in. we had about 500 cars turn out and got to meet a few barner's in person.
we had the Honest Charley Garage open for people to see some of our latest projects as well as the Coker museum and showroom. I believe all had a great time. I will post some pics tomorrow.

Here's a few pics from the cruise-in Chad Hill's(django)36' and my 37. Ricky bobby's 34.' Ricky broke a rocker arm so Corky pulled a spare off one of the motors in the shop and we got him up and running.

Yes the cruise-in was awesome. The one time I left my lug wrench at home and needed it -- the guys in the garage grabbed a ratchet and bar that did the trick. Again what great time.

We had a blast! It was about 1400 miles total. Great to meet you in person felix37!

Everyone at Coker was top notch. Good people.

We had a great time! It was 1400 miles round trip. I dropped off a set of Hemi Heads at Mondello in Crossville, so we got to see alot of pretty country off the interstate. Everyone we met at Mondello and in Chattanooga were really great! And the museum is killer too.

Here are some pics I took along the way...



Nowhere, TN...





Cave City, KY. Don't mess with the locals.



For miles, the barns said See Rock City. So we did.



Overnight stay at my parent's house.

The caps? They are '36 of course. At least the stainless part is.
