Re: Vintage vehicles driving around. See one post it up.

Went to an in-town vehicle meetup. I'm a lazy old goat, I didn't take any pics. HOT. When I got in my econobox, it showed 102 in the shade. Wasn't supposed to be this hot today. People came and were splitting early, even though the afternoon breeze off the ocean (15+ miles away) was kicking in. Didn't take the truck, because I was visiting member Richard earlier in the day and saw that I had coolant puddling in the street, across from this house. I'll look at that tomorrow. I'm hoping that it's something simple like the water pump. Got a freebie grille insert from Richard, and got that installed between our visit and the meetup. Thank you very much, Richard! It'll be nice to have a correct grille in this truck after all these years.

I was bad. There was a beautifully restored Lincoln Zephyr with the flathead V-12 in it. I told the owner that it needed two more carburetors. It had some puny 1-BBL downdraft carburetor on it.
