    Wish me luck, - please..;-)

    To morrow morning I'm gonna leave the island to drive 250 miles with an empty trailer, - and then 250 miles back with my newly arrived , from the US, 1957 DeSoto on the trailer...

    We got half the country closed by snow, well below freezing, still snowing, and the wind is promissed to be going faster...   :bricks1:


    But I just can't wait to see / get home -  the DeSota for real....    :cooldancing:

    Is it possible to put your trip off for a couple of days?  Half the country is frozen and closed, it is still snowing and you have 500 miles in snow and wind.   If you do go, take some sand bags with you, plenty of extra food, water, artificial heat source, extra coats gloves , radio, flashlight, chain come along, matches, tools, blankets......you get me?  try to prepare yourself for the worst and hope for the best. Or just wait till you are sure that all roads are passible. Please be careful

     :2thumbs: Easy as ya go Cowboy  :2thumbs: Don't know what kind of condition your new toy is in but I'd say if it comes to bad conditions the weight of that old Desoto can get through some bas azzz snow. Those old cars were built for transportation and safty in all driving conditions. Get her home safe buddy.  :cheers: Trailors like to pass trucks  :roflsmiley:
