Re: New York to San Francisco via Lincoln Highway

Despite only being able to tag along for a mere nine mile stretch, I had an absolute blast meeting everyone! Thank you all for being super accommodating, and making me feel welcome! A special Thank You goes out to Teresa, who seemed like a random stranger that had pulled over to ask about my parked ...

Re: New York to San Francisco via Lincoln Highway

Hanging out at the Rutters #5 in my Tudor between Fayeteville and Chambersburg. I can only run to I-81, but joining you even for a short stretch would be an honor! :mrgreen: Correction: Construction crew is directing traffic at the intersection, causing much commotion. I pulled into the Dollar Gener...

Re: EV's

In my fleet of 4, it's actually the EV that I choose for long distance trips. Don't knock it 'till you try it, I say. People are often left confused after I dispel some of the common myths they thought applied to all EV's across the board... -Just wait 'till it needs a new battery, and how much woul...

Re: A 21 yr old wants my '23

The mention of “hostile driving environment” reminds me of the weekend I rented a cabin to spend time with my parents who drove up from Baltimore to meet me on site and decided to surprise them by showing up in the T. The most challenging part of my trek was taking 77 across the mountain from Smiths...

Exhibition pass down the track at Mason Dixon Dragway

Just as the title states, I made an exhibition pass in my Tudor during the Ford event at Mason Dixon Dragway in Boonsboro Maryland this afternoon.

Re: A $20 (or less!) DIY regulator, and other issues

Here's another post of support for the project as my 12v conversion has been on hold since September, mainly due to this one piece of the puzzle being backordered indefinitely. I hadn't realized at the time of the order that these have been out of production for a couple years now. Thank you very mu...

Re: Carlisle All Ford Nationals

What!? That's unacceptable! :o I can tell you that weather permitting, it will be at the Mason Dixon Dragway car show on Sunday August 28th. I had several friends who were going to bring their parents out for a ride. Please feel free to drop by to introduce yourself and we'll hop on I-81 for a blast...

Re: Carlisle All Ford Nationals

The Tudor is mine. It got way more attention than I ever bargained for! I parked it and hung out with my Thunderbird friends. It placed third and also ended up being a celebrity pick winner. Both awards were totally unexpected! I had a blast giving several people rides before loading the car for the...
