I will be flying to Arizona, then on to Texas

I will be picking up James Tharp'* black 97 SE/SC and driving it to CT where I plan to do a lot of drinking and bs'ing. The following weekend, I am going to Ohio where i am meeting fuelforthesoul99 and goneville for the GP meet with Intense, then going to NY to meet TechTed for more beer and bsing.

My tracker should be working for the trip: http://www.findu.com/cgi-bin/find.cg...D8BVD-2&topo=8 It should work for most of the trip. I am using a handheld radio and it only puts out 2.5W. Thats not a whole lot, but it works

hrm... I've always wanted to drive the alcon and I do have two weeks of vacation... might be fun next summer....

And you can always stop in Binghamton on your way to Ohio or Letchworth. There'* a spare bedroom and if it is during the week, I can send you to the junkyard since the car is technically and SE there should be parts for it

alcon? Google didn't return any viable results on the first page.

Alaskan/Canadian highway? If so, we're doing that trip in June - Michigan to Alaska.
