Went For A Ride
Yesterday I went to Leathernek's and looked at the progress on his car. It's looking great although it's in pieces! We then went to look at a friend of mine's 28 Roadster Pickup. Nice complete truck that he does not drive. All these Model A's made me want to drive mine so that's what I did today. A beautful sleepy Sunday in a small southern town. Time well spent.
I thought I share a few pictures. Tim |

Re: Went For A Ride
Great pics, thanks! You guys are tearing me up! My coupe is about two weeks away from shipping, and Spring is at least four. I can't wait to hit the backroads!

Re: Went For A Ride
Living north of the 49th parallel, my envy of you southerners is showing.
I won't drive mine until the igloo starts melting.

Nice car Tim. What color is your car? It looks like black wheels but the body???
Will have to wait for the rain to stop here is good old rainy Oregon before taking many drives.

Re: Went For A Ride
Beautiful car! And nice shots with the old buildings and signs. Got in a 25 miler here in central Massachusetts today - sunny and dry, though temp hasn't cracked 40* yet.

Re: Went For A Ride
Thanks Guys. My car is Andalusite Blue. And it was 59 and sunny here today. We've had a mild winter and I thought today was the perfect day to enjoy it.

Re: Went For A Ride
You guys down south are so lucky with no snow. My wife and I went for a 25 mile drive today. Warm out at 25 degrees but we were in a winter storm watch last night so we got to try out some backroads that hadn't been plowed yet but most of them did have wheel tracks to follow. Still a fun ride. Waiting for spring!

Re: Went For A Ride
Pete,
59 Is not as warm as you think , The sun was bright and no wind, But I still had to put on a sweet shirt to wash my wife's car today . But were pretty tough down here, Cold weather dont slow us down at all. Your car look's great, and must run great to even start in that kind of weather . Thank for the pic's from the great white north . |

Re: Went For A Ride
Louis,
When it gets to 59 here with a bright sun and no wind the first time in the spring we damn near run around naked. Last night was the most snow we had all winter, been unusually dry and warm. I love it. Pete |

Re: Went For A Ride
When it gets to 59* in Minnesota we shed our shirts and put on suntan oil. I took these 2 pictures in my back yard a couple years ago on April 1st. This was nature's cruel April fools joke on us. |
