Well...thanks to the help of some friends, my car is sitting at an undisclosed location (Jody' House) waiting to be picked up by the painter. Vega$69 was nice enough to loan me his car trailer to make the move possible and a few others helped me roll it down the driveway and get it loaded. Laurie and I headed out on what became a bit more of an adventure than we planned. We took the northern route not realizing just how tight, twisty and rolling the roads would be. I expected a few two lane roads, but it got kind of silly. We had plenty of funny looks from people while dragging the car through the mountains and of course plenty of thumbs ups.
We turned off the 95 and onto the 58. I didn't think the road would last like this for long and it didn't...it got smaller.
After a few miles we hung a left and this was the view that greeted us. The road just rolled and twisted for miles. It was stupid tight and I was down to 10-15 mph through all of it. We had to swing wide on nearly every turn so as to not drop a wheel or scrape the trailer on the rocks sticking out. There where spots where two cars couldn't pass even though it was two lanes. Absolutely no way of turning around. We joked about the road becoming just a grave covered cow trial and then we came to a one way pass through some rocks. It was so tight we probably couldn't have opened the doors on the truck.
Thankfully the road opened up and everything went smooth. It was a beautiful drive and one I would do again...only not towing anything. lol
We hit the road and beat feet for home Tuesday morning, this time taking the 99 south, across 58 and up the 15. It was only 50-ish miles longer, but all highway and it saved us nearly two hours. It was a great trip with zero issues. Wish we could have spent more time checking things out along the way there and back, but it was a small window for us and we needed to get home.
Hopefully the painter will be started on the car in a few weeks. Pretty excited and I have to admit nervous.
