Default Indy to Viva via a Studebaker!

Just wanted to let everyone know that we are heading for Viva Las Vegas Saturday morning! We're excited to set off on the open road with the Studebaker! We are looking forward to having a GREAT time with the Shifters and hanging out with some old friends and meeting tons of new! We are not quite sure where will be stopping, so if you see us on the road be sure to HI!

Vegas, look out, the Road Rockets are on their way!!!!!!!!!!!

Yancy,
After going to the HCPU and following Lon in his roadster I decided then no one has a good excuse for not driving their car. (sans family reasons).

If you pull this one off you are HARD CORE!!!! No heater/defroster, wipers and open exhaust!!! I'll have to move Lon to number two on my list of hard corer's.

Good luck and you guys take lot's of pictures. This will be a trip the two of you will never forget.

John

I'm jealous, I've been working so much OT I haven't done more than start my Stude and pull it out of the garage this year. Are you taking I-74 to I-55 below Peoria, IL and then doin' the Route 66 thing?

Geeze, what a great time to do the "mother road" too .. Would love to do route 66. Was raised on it in MO and traveled a lot of it on my Goldwing when I went from FL to CA. What a trip ..
