My 50th High School reunion was cancelled/postponed last year. It was held last week and I did drive the 57 Plymouth back to Illinois. All together the car racked up 4000+ miles there and back. The car did great.

The route I drove took 29 hours each way and on the way back I drove straight thru. I missed the 20 MPG I got with the Tri-Power but fun with the Dual Quads was worth it.

I even fit in a trip up to the Museum that the 57 Plymouth that was buried in Tulsa now calls home. Kind of fitting considering I originally built my 57 to Drive to Tulsa to see the car exhumed in 2007.

The Tulsa Plymouth looks better than it did when I last saw it, but that’s not really saying too much!

Anyway it was a great trip and I’m glad I made it.
