Big 10 adventure!

[mcm1209]

Recently found a 78 Big 10 in Albuquerque. 0 rust.. Love the look of the 2 tone and the fact that it has working AC, original moldings, original paint, original interior made me buy 3 one way tickets for me and my boys. Got up at 4 am Sat and left Houston at 6:30 am. Arrived in Albuquerque at around 9:30 (NM time). Made the deal, went to Advanced to pick up an order i had placed for fluids and some random parts. Took off back home at around 11 NM time. New crate engine was just installed Thursday so it only had about 80 miles on it. Trans was also recently rebuilt with less than 300 miles on it. Varied the speed between 55-70 MPH until I got to Lubbock and got an oil change.
Got home at 3:30. Loved that I got to experience it with my boys. Will not hesitate to do it again. Truck ran perfect for almost 900 miles. Now to take care of the details to make it that much better.
