I grew up driving next to the MUNI buses so no I was not nervous. If we have the Charger meet at Treasure Island this year maybe we can take a cruise through the city after.

Is there any talk of a cruise? if so, count me in.   :cheers:

Nice, Marco.  :2thumbs:  Makes me want to go out and fire mine up....  :yesnod:

Did you get the temperature gremlins fixed?

Lets plan the Treasure Island cruise a little later in the year. Dave and his bride will have to go, of course, even if he sells his '69. And we did do a cruise through S.F. a few years ago...Dave in his automatic and everyone else with sticks climbing the hills. Lots of tires spinning that day.  ;)

Hi Marco,
Are you still running the wheel and tyre combo you have in your signature image?
Tempted to do the same with mine. Would be great to see more pics if possible.

Dan,

The stock gauge still reads at about 230° F when in traffic but the mechanical gauge reads about 195° F. As for Treasure Island later this year sounds good. I don't hit many hills the way I cruise through San Francisco.

Yes I am still running that wheel combo. One thing though I lowered the car about 3" in Photoshop.

Sweet video, my favorite town, met my wife there, I would live there if I could afford it.  About 12 min mark, you are passing a museum or something, where is that?

mopartybob

Palace of Fine Arts....as he's cruising down the road he's on Harding park drive,(the golf course), makes a right on Geary, then down to the Cliff House and into the parking lot at Ocean beach...before the Palace,he's cruising the backside of the Presidio,very,very scenic.....  I'll be doin the same cruise....very soon,  MPB

It is a very informal cruise that a bunch of us do, in September or October, starting on Treasure Island and either motoring through the City, or heading over to Highway 1 for a cruise down to Santa Cruise for a nice lunch on the water. We'll do a bit more planning later in the year. All are welcome. There should be a lot of threads on past events.

Nice video! I was wondering why you were driving so slow at around 9:20 - five seconds later I knew why  ;)
