A road trip to buy a car hauler.... or buying a car hauler to take a road trip?

Cool story--that's a good fix for what could have been a very unhappy ending. Thanks for not letting her die at the hands of uncaring W.T. Then again, were they W.T., they surely would have stolen your tunes...

In a different color, that thing would look nice with a Falcon on it...

Very nice and glad you got it back up here!!

Really? Def Leppard"s On Through the Nite? that album is epic! I though only about three people in Nor cal knew about that album....good taste..

Now see if you can find somebody up here to f_@k it up LOL,

I didn't think this was possible. Worse taste in music than automobiles.

I see Richie didn't have time to straighten the dog leg out of the frame. haha

Rich, you are the man.....

I remember when we set out on the 4000 mile trip everyone thought we were nuts and would end up on the side of the road.

Who would have ever thought after 4000 mi in 10 days the last couple hundred would take almost a year?

I just hope you keep Betsy long enough to get BMF on the back of her for a track day.

Sort of took the words right out of my mouth. I was going to say and you thought the first couple of days were going to be the tuff part of the adventure.
Glad its home! Way to go Rick!s

Wow that sucks Flash but glad to hear it all worked out. You sure see who your good friends are in times of need. Glad to hear there is a happy ending.

What are your plans for Betsy now that you have her home?

My bet was that it would end up on the side of the ROAD -- not the side of a HOUSE... LOL

On the flip side of the coin though, James May approves of 'The Betsy' journey's timeline...

Your Falcon would look very cool on the back of this thing no doubt!

That is one of the true lessons of this story Jeff.

As far as plans, I hope to keep it awhile but not sure how long.... I did originally plan to have it be my local track day hauler (knowing it was marginally inconvenient but hopefully doable). But a month ago I bought a 06 Duramax Crew Cab 4x4 as my new DD so that might have changed the game.... Betsy is very fun to drive, and really not a handful at all. Now that she fits on the side parking pad I can take my time and figure it all out.

I forgot to post this earlier.... check out these awesome floor pans. Vintage!
