I had the pleasure of meeting Don C today !

[Reg Evans]

Don Coatney came for a visit today all the way from San Francisco. It must have been a 3 hour drive one way. He's a really great guy and I'm very honored and flattered that he took the time to come all the way up here for a visit. Thanks Don! It was good meeting you.

Oh yeah.....sorry the lady in the little gps box got ya lost towards the end of the trip. Norm.......No

Did you take Don for a ride, I know secretly he likes the coupes He won't tell you though, That 38 Chryslar is nice, A friend of mine has one and sometimes I help him work on it, has a 8cly in it.

[Reg Evans]

I didn't take Don for a ride in an old car but we did go down the hill to my junk yard in my Dakota for a look. I would have taken him for a ride in the 38 Dodge coupe but he had a lot of driving ahead of him to get the rental car back to S.F in time.

I'm not sure yet on the color for the coupe but I'm leaning towards going back to the original medium blue. Maybe even two tone.

Reg.....sounds as if you and Don had a good visit.

Don....I see two items......the goatee thing, and you bought a coat.

[Don Coatney]

Reg;

I was honored to finally meet you. I did make it back in time with a whole twenty minutes to spare. I will post the collection of pictures I took soon. Very nice visit and a very enjoyable day even though the lady in the box sent me into the mountains. It was a fun drive and I had to use the moss on the trees to find my way out. Had I driven my P-15 up those remote mountain roads I dont think I would have had an oil pan left that would still hold oil. Benefit of rental cars is you can drive them anywhere:cool:

Bob T;

You flunked the Dementia quiz. I did buy a new coat but you missed the boat on Maynard G. Krebs

[BobT-47P15]

Oops.....must be my failing eyesight, Don.

Your personal acquaintance list is growing.....James, Marty, and Reg....sounds like about as much fun as a person could handle.

Hey Don.....

Man, didn't know you were going to leave the SF area while you were out here, let alone drive up and see Reg. I'd have invited you over my way cause Reg and I probably only live about 45 minutes from each other. Is that right Reg? Well, anyway, if you decide to make another run.....let me know. Your more than welcome to stop and visit, have some lunch and see the old Dodge.

And that's just the way we like it...

I might get o Helena, Montana sometime. How far are you from there?

I'm about 6 1/2 hours from Helena, if you take the non-scenic route. The scenic route is about 50 miles shorter, but takes about 2 hours longer to drive... and worth it.

clicky for map of the direct route
