welcome route 66, and by the way Paul, a Route 66 ride is in the making for 2010. Just me, the cameras and the roadster...I should document it for a story. My buddy with a custom soltice may do the trip as well...on his own of course. Thanks for showing off my SRT in the middle of the pack. That was very kind...keep in touch.

Hey, everyone! Please excuse my 'pride' but in your Old Autos Dec. 15/09 I have a second 'article' on selling of a 'longtime' cruise car, a '69 Caprice. It is in the first section of the paper, on page 23. Also I have a Christmas message to the readers on the middle of page 5, again first section.

I hope everyone enjoys Old Autos..it is a small 'hometown' family run paper and still has the great values of a gentler time. It reminds me of a Twilight Zone episode where one can again 'capture' the past.

Priority will be given to members who attended the Fall Dragon meet since this is how this story originated.

Thumbs up Re: Crossfire article published in OLD AUTOS magazine

Hi, I'm Jim (jimted9619) and I am a new member. I bought a 2007 Crossfire SE red roadster two months ago off of Craigslist. What a beautiful car. 40k miles six speed. And the car was less than ten miles away. Paid 7K and the car was even delivered to my house by a gorgeous lady. If I wasn't meant to have a crossfire then nobody is.

I saw your post about the dragons tail in Tennessee. We, about twenty bikes on our way from NY to Atlanta, stopped off in Tn to do the dragons tail. What a rush 318 hairpin turns in 11 miles with no guard rails if I remember right. My ride was and still is a perfect 1998 Valkyrie, all black with a concert sounding stereo. A magnificent piece of machinery. Not a hiccup all the way to Atlanta and back to Long Island.

Luv my Crossfire
