Rodder's Roundtable / Another Aussie on RRT

Thanks blokes and thanks for the Progressive Insurance tip enjenjo.  I'm following that up now- hope it gets me on the road without needing the trailer!

BTW, any tips about rodding events on route between Redding and LA between 23rd and 28th October?

G'day from Downunder.  I've lurked a bit on RRT, and I can see you are an Oz friendly site but now my upcoming CA visit gives me a reason to post.

I'm married with a couple of sons and 4 grandchildren and I have a '38 Ford coupe ute that I'm building very slowly and I'm about to buy a '30 A Model coupe with SBC from Redding in northern California.

I intend to pick it up on Thursday 22 October and then I'd like to slowly drive down to Long Beach (maybe by Tuesday 27) to have it shipped back to Oz.  If this doesn't work out (insurance seems to be difficult to work out) I may need to hire a trailer and a pickup :? .

Which brings me to the reason to post.  Are there some events going on between Redding and LA that would be good to check out?  I've had a look at the "Calendar" section on this site and can't find anything there- if that's an intelligence test, then you'll understand why they've sent us so far away from the Mother Country down here!

Cheers,

John
