    Dan....3 years ago or so that car was a rotted out hulk left for dead and you ...Dan ...brought it back to life thru hard work and determination (and visa..)....but you not only got it on the road.. but drove it 5000+ miles rather trouble free...that is something to be proud of! Much respect !!

    My car Club in now working on an Power Tour type extended cruise out here in the Southwest. The Route were trying to get is Las Vegas to Lake Havasu to Barstow California to Bakersfield to Pomona, which 700 ish miles total. Were shooting for Veterans day weekend of 2024 for the first one, a cruise like that out here has to be in either the spring or fall when the temps are in the 60's and 70's, i mean it's 11 am here in Northwest Arizona and it's 93 degrees, no one wants to do all that when it's almost 100 and it's not even noon yet. When we get more done and closer to getting anything form I'll let you know and maybe you guys will come down and join us.

    No major problems on any road trip of the length you and Danni just completed says a lot about your build Dan. That's something you can take pride in for sure. Driving a car on the road is what a car was built for. We went on a 1700 mile road trip last month to Mount Rushmore from Minneapolis. You'll love it. You do some good climbing while going up to it though. lol I also averaged 14.4 mpg in my old 75 Malibu pulling a little Hobo Freight trailer, that carried spare parts and personal belongings. We had a blast doing Needles Highway too. One word of advice. You'll be headed thru SD,ND, or Sask. on your way there from Winnepeg, if you want to see NOTHING! Do it during the day. If you don't want to see NOTHING, do it at night. haha Anyways. Thanks for the content and can't wait to see that rare Candain car you brought back. 😁

    Words of wisdom Dan. Keep it simple if you plan on doing lots of mileage. All my cruiser type of hot rods I built all had one thing in common. Readily avaliable parts. Have a tool kit for each car. If you have more than one. Why pack an entire wrench or socket set if you only need 3 different sizes ? Don't pack stuff you will never use. Vice grips and adjustable wrenches. And multi tip screwdrivers. If you need more than that, you will find that one guy that has brought every tool imaginable. Bring a hammer. You can do lots with just that. A real problem solver.
