avantey Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 I got a refreshed enjoyment from our '31 sedan Sunday! I got it out and went about 35 miles to a local car show and back with a friend. What a pleasure to drive- solid feel, stable at about 45-50, plenty of power and pretty comfortable on a very hot day here in upstate NY. I had the engine rebuilt in 2013, used this car for one tour and for various reasons never drove it in 2014. We were supposed to do the Hupp tour recently but that was not to be as many of you know. I also didn't really care about the car show but playing with the car and being around all the great friends we have in the hobby is good therapy right now for me and I am grateful for the friends. The car ran like a dream- very steady, very smooth and very cool for a 90 degree day. I am very happy with my Hupp now! It is like a new car with the new engine (thanks Steve Bono!) and I see why Hupp competed well with Buick in this era. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hupp36 Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Glad to hear you got the L out for some good touring. I.t was after the Hupp tour in 2004 or about that time when we followed you up to lake Ontario. Came back and about half way to Waterloo stopped for a great lunch and good friendship. Those times will live in our hearts forever. See you at Hershey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avantey Posted August 23, 2015 Author Share Posted August 23, 2015 Keiser21- I thought most everyone knew my cars but I will try to post a pic now. Haven't done it since the new forum format.... Chuck- Thanks for the good memory! It is a little bittersweet right now since I just lost Linda a month ago but that was a very good, fun 'extra' day for that Hupp weekend we hosted.
