Ice Fishing - Then and Now

[Bruce of MN]

Wow! Looks like great fun, too bad I didn't work harder in my career to afford the trip.

Wow, Syncro I never thought of that—someone who has never seen a frozen lake. I always thought that everyone had a frozen lake, but that's stupid.

Some of my best memories were taking my dirt bike racing on the lake with friends. We would insert 3 sheetmetal screws per knobby and just go.

I was once on a business trip and 5 or 6 of us went to the beach and we were standing by the waters edge. One woman about 35 was mesmerized. She had never seen the ocean before. She was from the Midwest and never left the state, I was amazed by that and always thought that everyone had been to the beach before.

Always neat to see these old cars and wonder if they are in someone's garage today.

Brad,

Is this the Model A that was at the bottom of Lake Coeur d' Alene, Idaho? I recall a number of years ago (maybe in the 60s or 70s) reading a story in MAFCA's Restorer about a Model A that went thru the ice on the lake, I think it was in the 30s. They located it, maybe in the 60s or so, raised it, and had it running in a short time after they got it to shore, I think it was running in under 3 hours.
