Nor Cal Roadster Run......Coupes are still for chickens

Well it is time again for the Northern California Roadster Run.

Last year we got rained out and had to postpone til the next week, but we still had a blast.

Here is the flier for this year. Should be clear of rain this year with the mid July date.






Here is a link to last year with some pictures..

If you have an early style roadster come along for the fun, or if you know someone who would like to come, let them know.

If you are coming please contact me and I will let you know where it starts.

I only do this so I can get a head count. That way I know how much coffee and donuts to bring, and I can let the lunch spot know how many of us are coming.

I also put on a Reliability Run later in the year that is open to all autos and trucks 1940 and earlier, and there is not any limit on motors and such.

So if you have a coupe, sedan or truck or later car up to 1940, come on that run.

See you out there on the road.

and you say coupes are for chickens?

 

Hell, anyone that knows me knows I drive my roadster rain or shine, year round.

And northern ca is not as dry as SoCal

However alot of the guys that have these old cars
Don't

Last year I drove through several stream crossings
scouting the run, but very few of the other roadster
guys were into doing that.

It is all in good fun, and that is my 33 coupe in my avatar

 

Here is one of the five stream crossings

Now I am sure that will scare half the guys
Away cuz they won't bother reading
It Is Not On The Run

And yes that amount of water will kill your
Ignition. Hahaha

But fired right back up

 

I remember seeing from last years post. Looks like an awesome time!!! I'm itching for a roadster like nobodies business!!!! That's just too cool man!!! Have fun!!



Note: anybody want to trade a 33 3w for a 32 roadster?

 

btt

 

Coupes may be for chickens, but those chickens stay dry.

 

Heard it differently

 

I'd love to cover this for Gasoline Magazine if that'd be ok?

 

Yeah you could come along.

do you have roadster you can bring?
or ride with someone?

thanks for the interest

Dave

 

Nope, no roadster..building a model a truck. Well, we'll see..
Are you guys coming to our show by the way?

 

You don't need to drive a roadster to cover the run for your magazine.

I hope to make the show, I enjoyed it last year.

 

Kool, hope to see ya at NCKO and we'll talk!

 

That was badass!

 

damn... thats too cool

 

I will hook up with you guys on the Reliability Run later in the year with the LaSalle.

HOT DAMN thats a sweet ride!

What year is it?

 

Dave, do you mind if i tag along?

 

just over 30 days to go.

and I still have to build a roadster,

 

weekly bump

 

Well with a bit of metal in my eye I had to take a day off the roadster build.

I think this will be going on while we are passing through for lunch in Gualala.

check out post #94.

I did not realize this was happening until recently, but a nice bonus for those coming on the
run.

any how hope some of you all make it.

thanks

 

less than two weeks

 

I can't believe it is only 10 days away.

 

9 days...

 

With Kent and Mike there, That would be a historic treat in itself. Looks to be a great run.

 

Just to be clear I don't know if Kent will be there, I think just his streamliner and the museum exhibit.

But it will be fun either way.

cheers

 

His talent will be represented, so I'd love to see how the streamliner is coming out just the same .

 

Ok,

Any one that is coming, can you please let me know.

I need a head count so that I can let the lunch stop know how many to expect.

And I need to know how many donuts and how much coffee to bring.

Thanks for your help.

Redbeard

 

Definitely will try to make my way there, Looking 4wrd to it.

 

Great, glad to hear it Kevin.

anyone else.....

cheers
