First Big Ride

[North Coast Cab]

Well it may not be as big as some on the board, but my '84 Cab has just returned from it longest ride ever with me. Cleveland to Niagara-On-The-Lake, Canada. Three days, three states, two countries and 594 miles. Though I was very woried about the "what if's" everything went great. My only maintenance issues were a burned out brake light, easily replaced on the way, and a blower fan which died on the return trip. I though it might be the fuse but it appears to be the fan. I never use it and had to run it for a long time due to the rain. Here's a picture, unfortunately with the top up, in front of the Chateau des Charmes winery. Even my wife began to feel the p-car groove and enjoyed the ride.

P.S. Forgot to mention the car turned 129,000 miles during the trip.

Glad to hear you had a great trip without incident. I drive my 78 SC Targa to Fla from time to time - 690 mi round trip. Havn't had a problem yet at 116,000 mi although I did a rebuild at 82,000. Niagra-On-The-Lake is where I purchased my first C & C 24. Brought the trailer to pick it up and hauled it back to Lake George, NY. Don't think the C & C plant is in business anymore.
