The Ford Barn

i hope that everyone who knew paul has learned of his sudden passing. if you haven't, you can PM me for details or view this thread ove on the HAMB:

http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/s...d.php?t=561828

so, a couple friends of Paul's, who are not on the Ford Barn or the HAMB, are going to be bringing Paul's car home in time for his memorial service on the 5th. Bruce lives in arizona where the car is now, and Paul was staying with him at the time. Ed is everyone's favorite barber, and a friend of Paul's since just after high school. anyway, i have been working with them on a route home, and would love to help them get some good old fashioned HAMB hospitality on the way. the trip comes as a great surprise, and neither of them really have a 'road trip fund' to dip into.

so, they are leaning towards a route like this:

north out of fountain hills, az to i40. i40 east to i81 near knoxville, tn. north on i81 to i84 in scranton, and on to i90 in MA to home.

if there is anyone out there who knew Paul and lives along this route, and can offer the guys a place to stay, or a safe place to leave the roadster and trailer, or cook 'em a nice meal, speak up now, and PM me your contact info so they can get in touch with you and plan the trip a little better.

i'd be on this trip myself if i could. so i am just trying to help out a bit since that isn't really an option.

you guys and girls are the best. let's see what we can do to honor Paul.
