That's so cool!  Way to go man!  :woohoo:
The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realize it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it.

Just got my Hot Rod and congrats on the nice write up.  IMHO this is fully deserved based on how much and far this cool car gets driven.  I like the all numbers pure stock cars a lot, but also understand why you can't really drive them a lot and enjoy them purely as just another fun car.  I built my 70 as a car with the ability to be a daily driver if I wanted to, with a goal of 2,000 miles per year.  If I can get past the teething problems with bad power steering pumps, that should be an obtainable goal.  But 12,000 miles and 2 Power Tours is really getting it done!  Again, congrats on having a car such a fun car to drive.

MizzouRT Thanks for the kind words...
 Your in luck June 1st.  the power tour starts off in Arlington Texas I expect to see you there!  :burnout:

You can do one day or all 7

Saturday June 1: Arlington, TX

(but you knew that already, right?)

Sunday June 2: Texarkana, AR

(Texarkana is a city in two states, half Texas, half Arkansas.)

Monday June 3: Little Rock, AR

(Ever heard of the “Climber Motorcar”? It’s the only car ever manufactured in Arkansas. Maybe we’ll see one!)

Tuesday June 4: Memphis, TN

(Elvis and BBQ, what more do you need?)

Wednesday June 5: Birmingham (Hoover), AL

(The Barber Vintage Motorsports Museum is worth a visit!)

Thursday June 6: Chattanooga, TN

(The home of Coker Tire, you can expect a warm welcome here.)

Friday June 7: Charlotte, NC

(If you don’t know why Charlotte, NC is a cool place for car fans, you might be reading the wrong website.)
