    Sounds like a blast! Too bad you can't turn back the clock on the gas prices..........average of .31 cents a gallon in '65! Be looking forward to the coverage!

    Good to see you again Joey, glad the Big Cat got you back home safe. I still prefer the name "Pontanic" but Big Cat is a close second. Looking forward to the full report.

  10. I was around in '65. Don't remember much... I was hitting the bottle pretty hard back then... it's the year I was born.

    :D

    I've had several 66's. 66 Chevelle 300 2 door post, 66 Impala 4 Door Hard Top and 66 Belair 4 Door Sedan, Delivered Pizzas in all of 'em in college. Great getting paid to drive around in fun cars with roll up windows, no A/C just cozy wings and vents. I'm 2 years oder than you Big A. My Brother 60WideWhitez has the only COOL car in the family now. I do have a non-hamb friendly 93 F-150 Short Bed with Cozy wings, inline 6 and a 5 speed, even twin i-beam front suspension (just a bit removed from the old solid axles of the 50's!). Had a great time taking it from Cincinnati to the Somerset cruise in / caravan in September.

    When are you gonna post videos and such from YOUR trip?

    The trip was chronicled in this thread

    and by my good friend Nick (Nick32Vic) here

    It was a hell of a trip, and I wouldn't trade the memories for anything in the world.
     
  13. Joey:

    Please be sure to come back for the 2014 Meltdown Drags... your coverage was superb!
