Not going to be making this one, Don. I know I'll have regrets, but just too much going on right now, including that getting answers to my battery questions is taking longer than I had hoped dealing with the factory in Knoxville. I know you guys will have a great time and make lots of memories!

Stuff a BIG battery in the trunk, and run it out there with us.
Don't think you'll have a problem with a REAL battery in it.

So I courted 10 cars in one photo,is that how many ended up running into LA with you?? Those sort of trips add to the Rodding life style and one interesting photo is the one where the guys are watering the trees, did only one want to go and then others followed suit??? Certainly a excellent bunch of nice cars so thanks for posting.

One more question, looking again at the photos, I notice some with the roofs on and others topless. Do those tops came apart to be store away in the trunk or behind the seat or do you guys always have a following vehicle that can carry stuff like that??

Had a total of 16 in the whole group when we all meet in Pomona

No chase truck involved, either the tops fold down or are stored in the trunk.
A few of the guys traveled over 6000 miles R/T , dirty laundry and all in the trunk.
This gang are "TRUE HOT RODDERS"

Any day in a roadster is a good day. Rain, snow, heat , who cares !!!!!!!
