30 years ago, I had already owned 2 vettes...a 71 and a 68...both verts...I had already driven the 68 across the country...from Fla up the east coast to Canada west to Detroit, and further west to Seattle..then down the coastal highway, and finally east through the southwest back to the southeast to Fla.
There were a lot of girls hitch-hiking back in those days! And a guy with a vette with a guitar sticking out of the storage area was.....'interesting'! LOL!
Ahhhhhh.....anyone want to hear some stories? LOL! :smash:
