    Dont you love pulling up to the pump to fill up and someone ALWAYS says that!! (Of course they have NO clue about cars at all) :rant:

    I say 69.
    Then the guy says ok, and his wife says See I was right!!!

    But it is an awesome site going down the freeway with vintage tin on a trailor!!!!:TU:

    BTW hey HOUSTON TEXAS !! Where were you???? I was expecting about 3 -4 helpers and a free lunch on sat morning!!!! :Brow: Just because we were in the rain didnt mean we werent still in texas to get the cars!!!! MAde it home no sweat the ole Duramax hauled butt with 3 4000 lb cars and a load of parts too. 1500 miles in 36 hours!!! Not too bad...... :3gears:

    Ice is coming down good now here...

    There's a lot of sleet collecting on the ground,.....on top of a 1/4 inch of glass ice...

    That's a sweet trailer you've got Mike!

    Thats the part I remember!!!! RAIN!
     
  14. Mike, I'm guessing these 3 are all from the guy that had 3 69's listed for sale here on the board? Looks like a nice haul you made there!

    At first glance I thought that S-10 was pulling the trailer :confused: :Dou: what a crazy trip it would be pulling it with that.....:Brow:

    Nice haul MG, were there parts with those also! as the red and the blue ones look like the trunks might be full! I assume that Big Red truck of yours didn't even know you what you had behind ya!
    Way Cool, thanks for sharing. RV:grin:

    Mike, 1500miles in 36 hours only figures out to be only 42 mph average. I can do that with a moped and a can of beans:Brow: :Brow:

    Seriously though nice snag.

    That 1/4" of ice you mentioned turned into about 16" of snow up here. It snowed all day Sun & Mon. :rant: :rant: At mother nature
