Day 3......Austin

We left this morning, guess what, it was raining again. By the time we got close to Austin (200 miles) it was clearing and the sun came out. It was a nice drive. We stopped in Lampassa at Kicken Street rods for a shop tour. Lots of nice cars being built there. I will attach photos tomorrow.
Austin is a big town. Many huge beautiful houses. We are staying tonight at Maurice's home. We had a great home cooked meal here. We washed our cars. I had to replace two bolts in the header collector that had fallen out. Sounds better now!!
In the morning we are leaving at 5:30 to meet for breakfast and then head out of town by 7. It is a couple of hours drive to Kerrville.
We also visited a neighbor down the road. He is building a 39 convertible and has a nice 32 Tudor and two vettes. A real nice shop. He does everything, paint, interior, body, metal fab...all home built and very nice.
Maurice has a beautiful 32 3W, bright red. A very garage with room for all three
32's.
that's it for the night..............Dale
