There is also a neat motel called the La Posada which is really a resort. July 8, 2007 — On Sunday, we took an excursion to the old mining town of Jerome. Jerome is on the side of a mountain. Really. Most of the houses are built on stilts. There are some neat galleries and shops to visit and a few very good restaurants. You really need to visit Jerome. July 7, 2007 — We traveled down to Sedona for a day and a car show. Several guys showed up. Met Carl, a great guy and his family. This is the part of this trip that is really special. We meet new friends that I think will last a life time. July 6, 2007 — Still in Williams. Had dinner at the Cruiser Cafe. Check out the pictures. Had a great chili size. We then walked around and looked at shops. We had parked the Kit-Cat® Roadster on the street and just about everyone wanted to take a picture of it. It is quite popular. July 5, 2007 — We liked Williams so much we stayed a couple of days. July 4, 2007 — We spent the fourth in Williams. We were in the parade, took the train trip to the Grand Canyon. July 3, 2007 — We then traveled to Seligman, a sleepy little down down the road. Seligman does have some fun shops and a couple of restaurants. Most of their economy comes from the Route66 business. July 2, 2007 — We traveled to Kingman and had a great hamburger at Mr. Dz. This is a restaurant with a 50's theme and food. July 1, 2007 — We continued in Lake Havasu for another day.

June 25, 2007 — Started with donuts at SoCal Speed Shop in Pamona. This is where they build absolutely awesome 32 street rods. We then went to the NHRA Hot Rod Museum.

June 21, 2007 — We have started the trip! We started in Santa Monica on Thursday morning beginning the Road Show. June 7, 2007 — The '32 is about ready. New engine and just about everything else under the hood. Maybe we just need to throw the hood away and show off. Final details being completed. Shirts printed, reservations completed. Typical stuff. Of course, there are about two hundred things that did not get done but we need to leave something for next year. Get on board because this should be fun! You can check out the daily schedule of events here. May 14, 2007 — Street Surfing becomes a sponsor of the Great All American Road Show. Download the press release. The '32 Hi-Boy is running again. Well, sort of. Got it started today and runs great. Need to do a little wiring fix but it sounds good and will be a lot of fun on the road. May 10, 2007 — The '32 Hi-Boy is in Arizona. The damage was more than we expected. No only are we taking the tonsils, we are taking the lungs, heart, kidneys, etc. Actually, we are putting in a brand new 350 V-8 with all new bright work so it will be clean and neat and dependable. We are also waiting for the custom KC logo that will attach to the front of the grill. Gonna be cool lookin' atcha. May 8, 2007 — Woody Young, president of Kit-Cat® Klock, just received delivery of his personal ride, a 1933 Ford pickup street rod. This is one nice ride. 5.0 Ford V-8 with a stick. Red, of couse. Really a high end driver. This will be the official Kit-Cat® delivery truck. This truck will be on the tour with us. April 20, 2007 — The roadster is in Arizona having its tonsils taken out. Actually, we are removing the turbo charger and going back to the basic carburetor. If a 750 Holley double pumper is "basic". We decided that it was important to be reliable more than just fast. If you want a good deal on a turbo setup for a 283/350 chevy engine, let us know. We even have pictures to show you how to put it all together. Comes with the turbo and all the plumbing. $600. The box it comes in is free. March 15, 2007 — We just finished a "dry run" of old Route 66! Wow! This is going to be fun. We talked to many community leaders and the response has been tremendous. Plan to come along with us on the adventure across America. Start your diet now because once we begin, you will be tempted with some of the best cooking in the world. Chili, watermelon, corn on the cob, you name it. You will be able to join us for a day, a week, a month or do the whole trip. Come on along!
