Where's Sam and Joe..... V@V

[tjones02]

Well, here's the car I drove to check out for Sam Adams and then Sean Casey and I put many hours into so that Joseph Oneil could drive it from the Bay Area 02 Swap & Show in Brisbane CA a then all the way across the country to the Vintage at the Vineyards...... For those of you who haven't met me in person yet, you have now seen a bit of my and Casey Motorsports' work.....

Last Saturday morning that car was at and on the Golden Gate bridge!!!

At the show near the San Francisco airport....

BTW that's a VERY good example pic of Manila and Florida!!!!!!! Jeff Goss's '67 Florida green car has faded original paint....

Then driven directly from there to V@V..... (with a few stops along the way)

Here's my album on Sam's car....

This morning at Peaks of Otter Looked pretty good to me considering the thousands of miles he drove in a 1600

Great fellow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The car would not start at the end of the event. It was dripping fuel from the exhaust joints.

I pulled one plug and found fuel. The cylinders and exhaust system filled up with fuel when it was parked facing downhill at the event. Jeffery finished the other three and pushed it while it was in gear so the fuel would get pumped out. They changed the oil and all was good!

Chico Joe's our new friend! He heroically drove the 1600 cross-country for Sam. We need to find him another one to take cross-country soon. Watch out Joe, we will drop in on you one of these days.

Here with Sam and his Family in Mountain City Tn. enjoying southern BBQ!

Wow... Where do I start ? An epic journey for sure.

Many pictures and stories to be shared. 4 thousand miles in 10 days !

For anyone 1/2 considering this adventure next year,

I give a resounding YES ! Scott Sturdy and crew put on an outstanding

event. Many new friends and memories. I will write a thourough travel log

with pics soon. Kind of odd to not be driving, my right foot is twitching.

Thanks to many that helped with hickups and challenges along the way.

Sam is very happy with the car and best of all it is a clean solid running

early 1600 That does not smoke !! More soon- Joseph

Joseph, I enjoyed meeting you too! I apologize I was a bit preoccupied at the time with a few er... logistical issues, so, sorry that we did not speak more!

Cheers,

Ray

So, what are you doing here?!!! that was exactly what I said when I saw Joseph. I was more shocked when I found out he drove the car all the way to V&V! I think, there were two of us from CA (well 3 if you want to count Ray Koke), and we both had exported cars to the East Coast and both cars were in the event! Great fun.
