I was looking for what I thought was my only old pic of my car and I found another one! This was taken in Daytona Beach FL in Febuary 1980, seven monthe after I bought my car.My brother , a friend, and I took a winter trip to Fl to go watersking.Yes we towed our ski boat to FL all the way from NY state.
VERY cool!
Dwayne :smile:
Now THAT'S the way to travel! ;D
yes it was a great trip.We drove 24 hours straight through.The back seat was folded down,one of us would sleep while the other two drove and navigated.There was a mini gas crisis going on at the time.While driving back on I83 between Baltimore and York Pa , after midnight, no gas stations open,we ran out of gas! The thing that saved us was about one gallon left in the boat gas tank, and 37 miles yet to York.I made it by driving up the hills and shutting it off and coasting down the hills.We made it to York and the 14 gallon tank took 14 1/2 gallons!
You still have this same car, right? What a great story!
Rock on Dude! That is awesome! That car must be like a part of your body after all them years.
Yes it is still the same car! Yea Norm inseparable.
