Winter has been holding out alittle bit so we thought we would fit a road trip in between the cold fronts. Bought a 1949 1/2 ton Chevy in Murdo, SD. We live in central Florida. About a 1800 miles away. We left Wednesday, drove about 900 miles by morning and found snow in St. Louis, Mo. All the itiots were on the road trying to get to work. One crash after another, car into walls, ditches, and upside down. We lost most of the day and didn't get but 200 miles done. Once we left Kansas City that evening we drove to Sioux City, stopped at a rest area to nap in the truck cab. We woke up to -2 degrees. Not use to this cold of weather. We got back on the road and drove to Murdo at about 11am. My friend Tom had bought some other 1928-30 Fords also. We had to dismantle the cars to fit on the back of the truck. The 1949 is on the trailer with two other cabs. This is a two day job having to work in the cold weather since it has snowed here too. We got one car done and had to call it a day. Got a motel room this night. Saturday had went well, got all the car bodies apart and loaded. The truck is packed full and the trailer is full now too. The chevy is a bit banged up but very little rust. Motor still turns, hope to get it running soon.
Check out the pictures so far, more to add. Need to sleep for the next two days of driving away from snow and rain I hope.
