Lol, very true... I just hope that I’m not in the boonies when it will probably happen to me.

I, along with plenty of others will eventually ditch mine. But I’ll Sweat a bit on my next long road trip.

And yes, “when was the last time you had a blowout” can be asked with nary an answer, but If you drive a lot, I’m sure you have stories to tell.

Now I’ve definitely put the pox on poor Charley :peepwall:

New tires aren't what they used to be -- they're MUCH better.... but a nail is a nail....

I was following KWhizz out of Denver last year when I thought I saw he had a low tire -- pulled up long side and he was about to be on the rim... The beauty of being on a tour like this - the pickup trailer was 10 minutes out - scooped him up - and off to Costco or TireXXX store -- and he was at the next stop with the rest of us.

I put runflats on the red '32 -- for this reason -- I like to drive A LOT -- but I hated the tires... so it totally wasn't worth it. Just pay AAA and have your cell phone charged...

You can set my truck on fire and roll it down a hill
And I still wouldn't trade it for a Coupe de Ville




Looking like she'll be right on time Charley!! I just wish Matt was going on tour with us.

clill 09-12-2018 07:04 PM

I’m gettin really excited.

SSLance 09-12-2018 08:04 PM

Nailed it!! Have fun on the tour... Not sure how you could not...

We are too! Gonna be our first tour, and the plan is for it to be far from our last. Doing it in my brother's car, and planning on joining in my car next year (assuming it's finished- should be!)

Can't wait to see the Riv and meet you guys next Wednesday night!

This build completely changed my perception on the potential for this and many other classics. You've totally created a new genre, Pro-LandYachting :thumbsup:. So awesome! Hopefully I'll run across it in person one of these days and get to check it out.

Matt’s finishing touch before it loads on the transport today was to change the color on the blower lid lettering.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...dd733bfe8a.jpg
