Two suspiscious charachters in this car spotted following us on the Power Tour. (Later identified as Dan A. and Loren.) Dans 65 GS performed great even though we encountered unseasonably hot temperatures! Great time!




That car sure looks familiar................ :icon_biggrin:

I bet Dan was really missing the 4 speed in that slow traffic.   :overthetop:

Could not imagine having a manual tranny car at that point on the tour.

Your old car performed great Tom. Never missed a beat.   :hello:

Hope you are mending well and will be back at it soon.

Glad to hear your car performed so well. It's a testament to what you and Loren did after my time with it.

I got caught in a traffic cluster while on my way to BPG the year I drove it. My left leg got one heck of a workout that morning.  :BangHead:

Hopefully I can start walking short distances in 3-4 weeks.

Hang in there Tom. You'll be walking around Lambeau before you know.
