We're set and ready! Car "passed" all inspections, fluids are changed and the A/C is charged.

To hell with expensive gas!

That would be my AMC.

73 Hornet "AMX", Mello-Yellow, 1970 390/727 drivetrain, 16" Americans blah-blah.

By no means a super car, but a lot of fun and it has A/C too!

I will be doing the whole tour with my son Ian.

How old is your son?
Did my first PT with my then 14 year old, we had a blast. He's now 18 and graduates high school in a couple of days. When I asked him a few months ago what he wanted to do as a senior trip he said " I want to do PT again with you, dad !" This time he can drive, so I can shoot pics

Starts in Cleveland and ends in Little Rock.

Don't forget to check out "Saucers" in downtown (old town) Little Rock. Great food, tons o beer from around the world (on tap), nice atmosphere, and friendly (sparsely dressed) young bar maids. And, you can work on getting your own saucer on the wall (or ceiling) !

Sounds to me like Dad just got a Graduation Present!

Enjoy your time together.

Ian is 22 and we have been doing car stuff together since he was a baby. He is as big a "Car Nut" as I am and has his own small collection of cars. (Yes...they are Tuners!)



We have talked about doing the tour for the last 5 or so years and last year we were all signed up when my Mother was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. We lost her shortly thereafter. (May 18, 2006)

This time, we have everything in order and the time scheduled off work. I am counting the days and we look forward to seeing many of you!

We're going to have to skip the Power Tour this year for the first time in 6 years Don't have enough vacation time for the PT and a honeymoon. I did meet my girl and get engaged to her on the PT but having it be our honeymoon too is a bit too much.

Good luck with the build Charley
