Ford Mod A Pickup, 1930

Okay, here's the sto ry about these two guys. I was on my way back to Wausau from the Tomah area in Monroe County and made my way on Hwy 21 heading toward I-39 when I got tired of the road and cut off to the north on CH G in eastern Adams County. As I'm driving north, these two Fords drove by me to the south. I am always looking for the old-timers, so I did a "New York U-ey" and hit the throttle to catch up with them. These guys were tooling along, I can tell you. I was on a high speed chase to be sure. The Coupe was lead with the Pickup protecting his butt. It turned out the guy in the pickup had a walkie-talkie with the guy in the Coupe. He could see me flashing my lights, he could tell I was smoking along bur ning rubber on CH G, and as I closed on him he could see me waving. So in tandem, they both slowed a bit, enough that I could pass and ride alongside the Pickup on the wrong side of the road. I showed him my camera. He got it, radioed to the coupe, and they both pulled over. I introduced myself, gave them my card, assured them I did not have a gun, and they all laughed and told me to take as many shots as I wanted. They said they were on t heir way home from an antique car show. Great guys. Praise the Lord I didn't crack up trying to get these shots!
