Every though VB was technically closed that day for inventory, I was able to get a personal guided tour of the inside. What a great place. -
Every sports car owner needs to drive US 50 from Montrose to Canon City (or vice versa) once in his/her life. I was lucky to choose this route and I will never regret it. A wonderful stretch of road and beautiful scenery. Just try to do it outside of "tourist season." -
Just outside of Delta, CO, October 30, 2002. The station was closed due to roadwork but I couldn't resist the opportunity. -
This was a gorgeous scenic overlook on I-70 eastbound. Thank goodness that I brought the tripod along. -
A few miles east of Scipio, UT, October 30, 2002. I was flying at the time and saw the caravan with the warning flag in plenty of time. -
Just a lucky shot, but one of the nicest that I took during the entire trip. Note how the white car picks up the color of the sky. -
The only snow I saw (all two miles of it) on the Great Eastward Migration. Date: October 30, 2002 -
The day after ending the Great Eastward Migration, November 3, 2002. -
I really don't want to ship the car but then, I've never driven 2500 miles going one-way in my life. It's that that has me concerned more than what it might do to the car. Especially problematic is the thought of Kansas and/or Nebraska. I went to grad school in Iowa and there was a reason why I never went any further west than Omaha. I like your idea, Owen, of US 50. It might take a little more time than I-80, but it would make the interstate through either of the two aforementioned states seem like I was flying. And I'll surely have a plug-in cooler for water and snacks while I'm doing the drive. A T-shirt fresh out of the reefer sounds like a real pick-me-up. ZmeFly, what route did you take in your '71? You must be training for an Ironman event doing 44 hours of driving in 60 hours of available time. How did you keep your sanity and concentration going? Anyone else have comments? I'm still interested in hearing about car carrier experiences.

Hi, folks. This is my first post to the forum and I think I've searched the site adequately beforehand so here goes. Has any had experience in shipping a Z cross country? I've noted there seem to be dozens of companies Web advertising their services in the regard. However, independent testimonials are probably more important to me than all the marketing brochures I could collect. Specifically, I've just bought a custom '72 Z located in the San Francisco area and need to get it to Ohio. I fully intend to travel to CA to pick the car up and spend at least a couple of days getting used to it out there, but I'm hesitant to make the 2500 mile, 4-day trek eastward -- especially as the car has a Rebello street engine and no A/C. So shipping the car is a distinct possibility. Any advice you folks could provide would be most welcomed.
