2014 MAFCA Convention in Puyallup WA

Gallop to Puyallup Washington to attend Model A Ford Club of America National Convention 2014

The Route - 495 Miles

These photos were taken on my trip in July 2014 from Medford Oregon to Puyallup Washington. I drove my 1931 Model A Ford Deluxe Tudor Sedan to participate in the 2014 Model A Ford Club National Convention.

I devised the route to bypass highways as much as possible. On the trip north, I only had to travel 9 miles on I-5. On the way home, I only drove 3 miles on I-5 where I couldn't avoid it.

During the 8 day trip, my Model A ran great, using no water and only 1/2 quart of oil for the 1085 mile trip. And she got 18 miles/gallon. Not bad for an 83 year old vehicle!
