      We be tripin

      Just thought I would share a few highlights of our latest adventure in our hotrod. Please fill free to add your on road trip adventures in your PT machines. Race events or what ever.

      This past week we logged 2100 miles on a little adventure that took us from the flat lands of Cowtown Texas to the highest continues road in the USA and back.

      Old ruins just north of Las Vegas NM


      Entering the great state of Colorado


      Top of Monarch Pass not planned we missed our turn off somehow




      On top of the world Rocky Mountain National park


      Leaving for home broke after a gambling time in Cripple Creek.


      All in all the LS1 powered cutlass was flawess other than the original throttle linkage sticking bad (not much fun in Mountain terrain) took allot of the fun out of my driving experience.
      I was somewhat disappointed the old harrison radiator which was leaking some when we left home met it's match on pikes peak. We had to abort the hill climb half way up it was just to much. The car reached the boiling point.
      It handled the 106 degree west texas air with a/c on high the day we left but could not handle the famous hill climb. Back to the drawing board I guess.
      This is Larry Callahan adding to Rocky's profile.

      I'm sorry to say that we have lost Rocky.

      RIP....
