2013 cross country record breaking Model A trip
Saw again an account of the Rod Wade and Michael Flanders record breaking pre-war car cross country 2013 trip on modern roads/ interstates — 3000 miles in 50 hours, 20 minutes and 6 seconds averaging just under 60 MPH, I wonder if any significant mods were done to the car. Can’t find any info on mods, if any.
An incredible trip even if done with significant mods! |

https://classiccarmag.net/new-world-...op-across-usa/ I couldn't help noticing his trip to Marree this year. https://vintageadventurer.com.au/pro...-it-to-marree/ We were there last week. The MacDonalds "coming soon" sign in the background is an outback joke. As with the bus stop! Petrol there is A$2.95 a liter. As in the photos, we have had a lot of rain this year so we took our 20 year old 4wd as you can open the doors and let the water out. |
