Now why in the would would you go and do something like that? One of those hailstones bop you in the coco? I guess that's one way to get out of a long drive!

We did something along those lines (long drive) in that area back in '09. Left Banff AB at 0815 in out '92, stopped for the night in Sheridan WY - 886 miles.

No kidding! My doctoral advisor at USC "suggested" I sell my first Vette, a '67 coupe, since I claimed to be a starving student. Sold it for $2,200 and bought a 1971 Datsun 510 for $2,206 and got financial aid.

He asked what I wanted and give me my asking price. Drove home in the 2011 and it was nice. 29.9 miles per gal. Oh one thing I came home with money from the deal. I was treated so fair from this dealership and the owner. Would not let people see his collection but that was OK.

I was actually at the dealership this morning and spoke to the salesman that you dealt with. I even spotted your 65 in the garage being worked on.

I sure hope you don't have seller's remorse! Looked like a really nice car!
