Yes. Having a child has not slowed him down at all. He’s an animal! 😉
Nothing beats a classic!

Took the car out to adjust the fuel tank level, had to burn about a 1/2 tank. 90 minutes of college fall driving, loaded it in the trailer and we start towards Chicago on Thursday
Can’t wait to get there
Owned since 1971, now driven over 245,000 miles, makes me smile every time I drive it and it makes me feel 21 again.😎

With the upcoming weather system we are trying to head out tomorrow. Don’t want to try out my ice driving skills on Thursday morning in Pennsylvania
Hopefully it won’t disrupt anyone’s else’s plans

I hope Deathsled got his car there in time.   Wasn't he driving it there?  Or did he find a trailer?   Richard??

It has begun. Tons of cars there btw. Valhalla for all that is automotive. I was there at 8 am and they were still streaming in.
I plan to go an do a wipe down tonight. Roads were clean this morning. I towed it because I needed another car to get to court. First world problems of the first order.
I saw white and black Hertz cars. Don't know where they will put my upstart.

Best,

Richard E.

"Low she sits on five spoke wheels
Small block eight so live she feels
There she's parked beside the curb
Engine revving to disturb
She's the princess from his past
Red paint gold stripes damned she's fast"
