[AMC-List] Shipping a Vdub



Justine; driving a new-to-you car cross country is not
for everyone, especially those feint of heart. You
don't know for sure what lies in the road ahead for
you.
I gave a guy in Nor Cal the same idea about a 67 rebel
wagon that I knew of here in Salem. He showed up by
way of Greyhound with a tool box, cell phone and dough
in hand. He also brought his son along. They bought
the car and headed South. Last I heard they made it.
I did this with a 64 Fairlane some years ago, but
without the cell phone (still don't have one). I did
bring along my 10-speed, though! Just in case, ya
know. The drive back gave me a chance to write down
all the quirks and noises, and get into kind of a
strange zen state, driving a strange car, unknown to
me, across the Oregon desert. 
Yeah, it broke down in the middle of nowhere. I did a
little campin', met a hippy chick who gave me a puppy,
a taste for cottage cheese and pears and some
memories. I got back to Salem about 4 days later.
Camped out for 3 days while I fixed a wheel cylinder
supporting the car on the water cooler.
Would I do it again, you bet, in a NY minute......Russ
