Welcome!! Now, stay on the right side of the road. None of that left lane fishy stuff over here. And no put-put driving either. We drive 113+kph.

yes i have heard about speeding over there. my boss goes there every couple of years, so he is used to driving there. he said "if you want to go somewhere, hire a car a drive there really fast"

Cleveland shouldn't be too bad, but California will be some of the faster driving, easy 130+kph. And if you do rent a car, don't rent a 4 cylinder. Good luck on your trip

Check with Rene for your Chevy parts.  I've bought from him for over 20 years. RD 29, spaces 6, 8, 10, and 12.
I'll be there 9somewhere around the big tent) selling my 47 Furd Panel streetrod, Stop by for a cold drink if you have time.
