Last summer I was cruising between the 70 and 80 mark. rt.80/90 once you hit Ohio gets awful straight and lonely. I usually carry a spare set of belts, an alternator and distributor incase I have any issues so i'll have us covered.

I live right off Ohio Route 80 - between Youngstown & Cleveland - I am still debating about attending - love to go but not sure how the Capri will hold up over a long haul!  Jeff

Thanks for the good advice Rocketman...I've have had my Capri off the road for 9 months painting and restoring the car and it would be great to enjoy it with fellow Capri enthusiasts...why own a car if you can't enjoy driving it....thanks again Jeff

If you guys plan on caravaning with Rocket, I wouldn't worry!  If anyone can do a roadside repair on these cars using chewing gum, spit, dental floss, and duct tape, It's him!!! You guys will be in good hands!

The city is yet to be determined....  It will either be in Winamac, IN,  Medaryville, IN or Rensselaer, IN...  They are all about 20 miles from each other...  

From the west....Winamac, IN will be the city furthest from you...

More info will follow in the next couple weeks...

Thanks,
Cheryl
