How To Stop a Truck.

If you want to really get my attention while I’m driving down the road on a pretty Saturday there are two good ways that don’t involve flashing lights.

First, park something like this on the side of the road:

This is Harry Zachau’s Studebaker President 8 Sport Roadster, and a truly beautiful example of the species. It was hanging out with a bunch of other pretty iron at the Cedar Creek Bar and Grill up in the Heights, part of the Houston Skyline Rotary Club’s “Rotary Rally.” There were a bunch of nicely done Chevies and “Cobras” (pretty sure they were all continuation models; the originals cost way too much to bring out for a lowkey event), a nice rodded-out `32 Deuce Coupe, a bit of this and a few of that… Good turnout and good selection for a new event.

The OTHER way to do it is a LOT cheaper.

Post one of these.

I’ll stop for a Studebaker. I’ll make a U-turn for a book sale.

Across Traffic. (There wasn’t any, so it was okay.)

And yes, there were books.

Books. Several followed me home, and I’m gonna keep them.
