Staying at W Austin (thanks for suggestion Streetking) looks very cool.

I fly home June 1 from LA, so have about 12 days to fill.

After some local knowledge.

I'm looking for some suggestions on things to do and where to go after Austin. Would love to incorporate a car show if anything was on May 25th & 26th. Hoping to eyeball some products when in USA for my Camaro and for next project, 72 C10 Stepside.

Was thinking of a road trip to New Orleans, which way? Maybe then a visit to DSE? Leave a couple of days for LA? What shops/vendors to see in So Cal?

cheers Roger
Sweet, pm me your info so we can meet up!

SW

Well, Austin you have Austin Speed Shop that I've been to. Congress avenue with several cool bars and juke joints and one I like is the Contential Club and then there's downtown 6th street I think that has several bars and juke joints. Cool place if you like music! I'm sure SW could hook you up with plenty of "cool" while you are there!
