Roadtrip

Finally, off to get Cutlass parts in Birmingham AL
From there, either going right to Texas or left to Florida....
Nothing better than combining Olds parts road trips with vacation time!......

Well..., if you map it out, and are going to swing close to Granbury. Maybe we can meet up on your way.

Sounds like we need to put a run
together here centrally to coincide
with your road trip Ted.

When is this taking place?

Where I end up depends on how my parents make out in Florida ....they are both approaching 90yrs and had asked me to help them if they needed it...so I said I would call them from Birmingham to see if they need me assist......so I will not know which way to turn until then......last minute thing.

There is a 50/50 chance that I will heading your way Adam....I am taking your number with me so you will know if you need to fire up the que

If we head your way, should be late Monday, early Tues we arrive.....

A big thank-you...

....to Mike(66-3x2 442) and Scott(Olds442redberet) for opening your garages and your homes to myself and my family on our road trip/vacation.
Visiting with you guys was the best part of the trip, and I hope to be down again soon.
My home is your home if you ever come North...

Ted
