Wow, I like the radiator screen too.... MOVE OVER .... Is it mostly freeway running to the LARS ?
Of the 1300 miles to "The Roadster Show" all but about 50 miles is either open roads thru Oklahoma, and Texas, then Interstate (I-40) all the way to California
Attachment 60395Whiplash, when Don said open roads, don't accept the trip to be just Freeway running. Last couple of years, the trip across Arizonia/California has been backroad two lane highways - the route less traveled - or "Beyond Hope" as the riders know.
Yep Ray, Dem 2 lane roads thru AZ are great
Isn't it right that about the time you're beyond Hope you're nearing the promised land?
Man, I just love that 3rd light! Its' got just a touch of the J.A.P. in it. I stuck a picture of the J.A.P. car in case you've never seen it.
Is that one of OkieJoes dash panels? The whole thing looks great!
What the heck is a J.A.P. car??
Once you leave Hope AZ Roger, it sure ain't the promised land.Quote:

Fun car !
The dash panel came outta my stash of parts I bought bout 20 years ago of an ole speed shop in So Cal that closed up in the 60's and was in a warehouse for over 30 years.
Bought a lot of 30 - 40 closed boxes of misc parts for $100.
Been using neat old stuff from them boxes for years now.
Still must have 150-200 items.
Some of the stuff is priceless.
Rodwell w/s on, just bout done
Now I believe you did a thread on your road trip with your other Grey Beards to the LARS which I enjoyed following along Don. That light blue '33 / 34 Roadster is so darn beautiful and perfect with its fold down roof, so desirable. That photo of the switchback road down the canyon reminds me of some of the forestry roads I use to race the rally car down and enjoy immensely and those are the out of the way roads I want to explore when I get to travel across the USA.
Seats and back wrap in
In that last photo, what is the switch looking item in the rear side trim Don ? Do you prefer the bucket seats over the bench type seats in the Roadster ?
I'm betting door latch mechanism..
Bingo, We have a winner !!!!!!!Quote:
