  • Await your call when you get to San Francisco, Walt
  • Hi Janne

    It looks very good, I tried to call you the other day but you might have left for US already?

    Be sure to send my best regards to Walt, a really great guy.

    I like the colors you chose Jan. Looking very good.

    The freeway from Walts to Jason goes right thru my town of Burbank. 375 miles/ 5 hours and 45 minutes from Walts to our home. Another 57 miles/ l hour to Jasons. Dependiing on traffic and time of day. If you have the time to stop by, it will be good to have you visit Bettie and I.

    Have a good day.

  • Hello Janne, hope all is going good along route A1. Thanks for the pictures, printed them out for all to see. It sure was a pleasure meeting you and the family and giving you your first ride in a HUDSON. Keep in touch, and if you need anything, contact me. Walt.
  • Is California highway A1 (same as highway 1) the highway that goes from Monterey to San Luis Obispo (and further) open? I am going to Long Beach, meeting my daughter and driving north to Hearst's castel and going along the coast route to Carmel and Monterey. I read on the state web site that it is closed south of Monterey, is it now open? Would appreciate knowing so that we can travel that beautiful route. Thanks.
  • As far as we know, A1 is now opened all the way. Walt.
  • Hi we drive A1 yesterday from Carmel to San Simeon and yeas the road is closed so it was a expirence to claim over the mountian whit the car it was a journey it self. But we drove a couple of hour from carmel before the stop.The road is closed north of San Simeon. It was a nice tour the coastway is amazing .Today we have been at the Hearst Castle what a bulding talked about projekt restore a car must be a easy fix". Here is a couple of picures of the A1 and the mountain that we went over.
