I THINK you mean COAST to COAST. (Don't want you to get lost)

Sounds like a hoot. Any particular route planned?

Billy,I drove route 66 in 1966 in a new Triumph sports car. Top to bottom.
It was a trip of a life time

Steve,

TR-4A, or was it an early TR-250? I loved my TR-250...had many 6's too.

Jim,it was a Spitfire. The big Triumphs were just expensive enough to be out of my range. I got married and that was the end of sports cars.
I paid $2,200 and my 1959 3.4 Jaguar or $100 a month.

How many people told you there was something wrong with your rear axle? They didn't know about independent rear suspention.

They were great cars.

Steve.

I drove from Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan to Ventura, California in 1981 and hit 66 on the way. I had an Opel Manta. Loved it. Drove back a year and a half later, with a 72 Fiat spyder. and a wife. Long bike trips sound real good. We need lots of money. Brvnkaerv
