Starliner Rod Run

Image
Took the Starliner out for a Rod Run to Prescott Watson Lake Car Show and Swap Meet August 2nd. Last year it rained before the event making the grass parking area soggy and I couldn't not take the car off the paved vendor area. This year it was dry before the show, but rained (real hard) at 2:30 that afternoon and I barely got the car off the grass. Then had 2" of water on the roadway in a down pour with no windshield wipers and hydroplaning going on. It stopped raining (hard) by the time I got to Chino Valley, where I got gas, then had only showers to contend with on the 100 mi. plus trip home. Other than the thunder storm and 1 full day of car cleaning it was a good show with a lot of nice cars and swap meet vendors to visit. The 51 4 door chassis is coming along with the front clip, C-notch, triangulation 4 link, rear end and new rear cross member in place. The body was put back on the frame with the doors, fenders and hood to make sure everything still fit after welding on
