Default Model A Drive to Custer, WA

Buddy Dick Steinkamp and I took a little drive of 20 miles (more for Dick) or so to give our Model A's some exercise. Been wanting to try a "suction-cup" camera mount so we gave it a try.

Thanks for filming and posting Art. I like the "lifeguard" reference on the Church sign.
Keep-em coming! Jeff

Art,

That's a great road trip. Ferndale, Washington is beautiful. We have a Ferndale in Northen California and it's beautiful too. Great roads for Model A's.

You can't be "sad and lonely" in a Model A.

It was fun to see my car from the outside going down the road. Don't get that perspective very often. Was a beautiful day, pushing 90 degrees by the time we got back, which is pretty warm for this country.

Nice video Art! At the top of Vista Dr. (4-way stop at the school), if you had looked out over the field you would've had a pretty good chance of seeing my '31 SW sitting under my carport! And yeah, A/C would be a nice option to have this summer!

Would've loved to come along, but work has been a 70-80 hour a week affair lately. I'm afraid the A is under cover for the year at this point. I'll just have to settle for driving vicariously through y'all on the Barn.
