Want Franklin Trekkers do best, talk about their cars..JPG)
Swap meet in the parking lot of the motel
A typical scene, the garbage can is not for discarded
Franklin parts. James Heisey in shades and goatee,
Alan Franklin and Cliff Stranburg on running board,
Arnold Barer with arms folded, and Steve Roach imbibing
from the contents of the garbage can.
The 03 "Speedster" at speed, yes it is moving.
Jerry Houchens beautiful '30 coupe painted in the original colors he found on the car during restoration. It has
a 1934 engine that was installed by the original owner in 1935 or 36. The only fault anyone could find was that
the deck lid handle appeared to be installed the wrong way. I think he may have done it on purpose just to
make the nit pickers happy.
