KY - > TX

🎶 I’m gonna hit that 4 leg runway and get her off the ground 🎶

Looking forward to my drive to Austin, TX next month to break her in.

~1300 miles of classic car driving in 5 days

Had an absolute blast. Going to convince Meg we all need to do Cruising the Coast next year. Will need to get AC in the 4 door for the kids before that.

A few issues on the trip, but nothing major:

• Loose wiring causing come grounding issues. Buttoned things up and seems fixed.
• Burning some oil. The Galaxie is not used to this kind of driving, likely need to freshen the engine up in the near future.
• Had to tighten my driver's side motor mount. Was a bit loose.
• Battery give up in Fort Wayne, IN on HRPT Day 3, likely due to the heavy traffic and heat. Made sure to get a nice and proper red top this time. Snagged an alternator just in case.
• Tire blew out a mile into Michigan at the end of HRPT Day 3. James had a spare and we continued to the hotel. Got new tires the next morning at Discount Tire.
• Exhaust hanger is sloppy and needs tightened up after barreling home on rough interstate roads.
• Headliner is sagging bad now due to having all the windows down and absolutely motoring home on the last day
