The Road through your Windshield...

Hey LBCD,
Boy, you are lucky to be able to drive down that boulevard at a moment's notice. It was one of our favorite coastal cruise drives, down the Ocean Blvd. to 2nd Street, Belmont Shore and Seal Beach as teenagers. Since we no longer have relatives or parents living in Long Beach, driving through that area is a rarity for us, these days. When we are in that area for some reason, it is definitely worth the drive, memories, and views.

But, if I ever get back to the Price Transfer Lions Museum update opening, (whenever that is) despite being so far away in the North Long Beach area, that drive South through coastal Long Beach is a lot better than the 405 South to Orange County.

Nice photos of your cruise down those fun drives through town. Your photo of the National Registered Historic, Villa Riviera intrigued me as I scrolled up and down through your photos. For some reason, that photo moved in certain ways on my screen and I could not stop doing that for a minute or so. (upppp and downnn, expand/contract...like it was breathing.) It was a little trippy... but fun.

It reminded me of those times standing below and looking up as little kids, when our parents took us on walks along the coastal roads, near the Pike. It was/is very tall.

You wonder why the rag in the radiator?
The washboards were so rough and I was going so fast my mascot flew off and got run over.

Rolling through northwest NM to the ATHS show in Aztec, NM.
I did pretty well, I used my Caddy powered 49 Ford F1 to flat tow my Jeepster Commando. Running along at 70MPH I was doing 2650ish RPM's and I got 15.4MPG.

 

Hotrod Hillclimb peak to peak run.

 

What gear ratio is the rear?

 

from Drag Week. It's kind of an inside joke...but if you're behind one of the Gebharts, you're running late!

 

Picking up my son from school today, like every Friday, then over to Sonic for after school treat.

 

at Firebird Raceway to watch my friend Dan Tuttle run his front engine dragster.

 

Sorry for the late reply. I'm running a 2.75:1 (I think) rear gear. I used to have 4.11:1 gears. They were fun but not practical. The highway flyers are great. The big Caddy makes tons of torque so I don't have any problems off the line, and I get a good top end. For me, it makes a nice combination.
