a little vacation
 
Headed out on a road trip to get the 90 car. I am driving to the the great state of New York for this one. Right near balmy Buffalo :eek:

Watching the weather very closly with the go bag by the door. If I can get a 24 hour period with temps above freezing I am going to try and get it back here to the SSP cave before the next round of snow flies.

Hoping to do it within the next ten days or so.

Jim, have a great trip...let me know if you want a room in Scranton!

NoDrama43 01-10-2010 11:41 PM

thanks John. I might take you up on that if it isn't to far out of the way..

Charlie 01-11-2010 12:15 AM

Can you say "Lake effect snow" We used chains in upstate NY when I was young

MOstang 01-11-2010 08:35 AM

Be safe on your trip and looking forward to hearing more about your find.

Whiplash trip...:D

mac88chp 01-16-2010 03:27 PM

Have a safe "vacation" trip Jim, I sure don't envy the horrid winter driving conditions you guys face back there. We'll all be waiting to see what you haul back!

don't remind me. My back and neck still hurt from the crash in September.

ajstoys63 01-17-2010 09:04 AM

By the way what are you looking at??

NoDrama43 01-17-2010 12:41 PM

bought a 1990 SSP.

wheelerg 01-17-2010 07:23 PM

OK the suspense is killing me.........

ajstoys63 01-17-2010 09:10 PM

You are closing the gaps on your collection...That is fantastic!! Where is this SSP from originally?

NoDrama43 01-17-2010 10:30 PM

west of the mississippi. State agency that didn't use many. leaving in 7 hours to go get it. Going to get some sleep. Pics will be up on Tuesday.

Will post up more after it is on the trailer which will be in about 16 hours. Don't want to jinx myself.

28HopUp 01-17-2010 10:36 PM

I'm gonna guess Colorado, but I'm sure it'll be a nice find regardless.

mac88chp 01-18-2010 12:44 AM

I'm guessing AZ, NM or NV.

MOstang 01-18-2010 11:10 AM

My guess is either Wyoming, New Mexico, or Nevada.

MOstang 01-18-2010 11:27 AM

Or one other idea was maybe Louisiana...

jpargo 01-18-2010 11:50 AM

Jim should be loaded up and headed back now...there was some snow last night but he should be good for today. Looking forward to seeing the pictures;)

NoDrama43 01-18-2010 12:58 PM

In the guys driveway.



Wyoming. :) I wish.......

C o l o r a d o it is. With a bunch of docunentatio.

Gonna get it loaded and head back. Only took me 61/2 hours to here so am going to try and get back tonight.

MOstang 01-18-2010 02:05 PM

Congrats! Looking forward to seeing/hearing more about it.

wheelerg 01-18-2010 06:52 PM

Congrats

NoDrama43 01-19-2010 12:34 AM

took 6 1/2 hours to get there, but 8 hours to get back due to heavy fog. I just got in with the car. I will be updating the fotki album tomorrow as I work on the car. thanks for all the kind words.

MOstang 01-19-2010 09:56 AM

Glad you made it back safe and sound.

SSPGARY 01-20-2010 10:18 AM

Just checked out the new pics. Looks like a nice car with LOTS of documentation.:2thumbs:

Texaspony87 01-20-2010 12:41 PM

Good score Jim! Excellent documentation. Don't see that everyday!

NoDrama43 01-20-2010 03:31 PM

thanks guys. These kind of docs are pretty hard to come by anymore. As the cars get older the agencies seem to have thrown it all away.

woodsideg 01-20-2010 06:44 PM

nice package you got there like all of your pics , love the SHOP:yes:
