Arrived in Salina !!

We woke up to cloudy skies and a little rain. We just had another cup of coffee and waited for it to stop. The rain didn't seem to cool anything off. It was a good drive, uneventful. The Vintage Air works well. The two vents that I changed around really helped the cooling. The motor ran 195 to 200 all day, so she was cool too.

We arrived in Salina about 5:30. Steve and Deb had just pulled in a few minutes before. They drove 13 hours straight thru to get here, we stopped for lunch and a few breaks and drove about seven hours.

When we arrived the temp was 114 degrees, not heat index but the real deal....it was HOT !! Today, Thursday is to cool down to a 100. Its going to be hot, but all the cool cars will help us make it thru the heat.

Tonight is a shop party at Brite Built Hot Rods with "free food" and then a cruise up and down Santa Fe St. The street will be blocked off so only the show cars will be allowed to cruise. Should be fun.

Stay tuned for more details later.
