I tried convincing my wife that the Power tour was a great idea for a honeymoon.
Guess who won :(

Naww....
That was back when I drove the white one quite a bit. Obviously it was still a sunny and clear only thing.
Few good reasons it does not get out much anymore.

Don't forget me! LOL. You were too much of a wuss to go last year (like we did!!!) hahaha! (guess I shouldn't say anything considering I can't go to WFC this year!)
Serious fun tho if you guys get a chance to go. 3700 hot rods on the highway at one time is a pretty awesome sight!

I'm planning on taking the ferry across to Milwaukee and cruising down south from there. Not sure if I'm doing the whole tour yet, maybe to Tenn. or maybe become an official member of the long haul gang.

For all the FEP guys coming to Indy... I will put something together for all of us to meet up or something. We can have a small cookout at my house if time permits. I live real close to the interstate so I am not out of the way at all. LMK your thoughts...

That would be great :D Hopefully we can work this out!
Have any you done the complete tour (long haul)? This will be my fourth year, so far I've done:
2004 2 stops, Chicago & Green Bay (86 GT)
2002 2 stops, Columbus & Detriot (86 SVO)
2001 Detroit to Missouri (86 GT)
(I think that's how it went)
Not sure what one to drive this year, either the 86 GT or Capri.

I wasgoing to do it this year but I'm now on a 6 month deployment that might be turning into a 9 month trip to Cuba!, but one good thing is that I'll get a good tax-free re-inlistment pay..
Can you say 514 creat motor/ tremec.. bear brakes.. :lol:

We did the '04 run in my SVO. Went from Dallas to StLouis, turned back to Denver from there. It is an awesome gatehring. The only time the Vette guys even wave to you. We saw a couple of Fox cars, and ONE was even a 4-eye. Hope there is a good 4-eye turnout in 05. In 04 there were about 3500 cars. There are some major car #s and everyone is real cool. The parking lots at every hotel are full of tailgaters that wanna BS and have beers.
Of course it can get out of hand...

As of right now, I'm planning to catch on in Nashville and follow at least through Birmingham... perhaps more. Unfortunately, I can't spend too much time on it... I have a family reunion the week after and I have use vacation time for. But I do have 2 days off that week and both will be used in the pursuit of HOT RODS!!!
Anyone heading to Nashville... watch for a post in the regional section for a FEP meet!
