Looking forward to the trip report.
I-10 this time of year should be pretty spectacular as the temps haven't gotten all that hot yet.
Be sure to check the brake system out. I once bought a car from an old guy out in PS. It was in August. It was hotter than hot. Drive home was memorable as we stopped at every off ramp for water to cool the radiator down (old Alfa).
Got it home and later found a flex line on the front that was one panic stop away from failure.
We dodged a bullet for sure and didn't blow up the Alfa either.
My son was about 12-13 then if I recall. I think we had a great adventure. I'll have to ask him how he feels about that trip now that he's a dad and 30-something years old.
Good luck!
