Hot Rodder Drives 1932 Ford Through 49 States for Charity

Former Army drill instructor Dave Schaub drove his 1932 Ford Roadster 9,856 miles through all of the Continental United States to raise money for the Ronald McDonald House.Eight days, 16 hours, 48 minutes at an average speed of 66.7 mph - that is what it took for Dave Schaub to drive his 1932 Ford Roadster through all 49 of the Continental United States and arrive at Hyder, Alaska on September 17. The charity drive benefiting the Ronald McDonald House at Stanford, the children and their families, covered 9,856 miles and so far has raised $76,000 dollars with another $20,000 in donation pledges still to come. "The drive was the hook to get people involved. I started out asking for just a penny per mile but many people stepped up and put a lot more in the hat," Schaub said.
