How Far Is Air Speed From Seattle
« on: March 25, 2005, 02:04:22 PM »
I might be going to my brother-in-laws house in Seattle in the next few months. So, if I have some spare time, how long is it to drive from Seattle?

And i'll have to keep me eyes opened to the event schedule.

Thanks.

It was fun, but i wish I had a 2 car garage so i can work on my black 57 European ragtop. It's been in \"deep\" storage at my sisters for 15 years.

At least it's in storage.  I'm a sucker for  the oval.  What sort of shape is it in right now?  Pic's?  Details?  Get on it dude.  15 years is too long for a bug to be off the road.  They're liable to get frightened when they see all the big SUV's. :D

It's a one owner car that all OG. It still has the original clutch. I have all the paper work including the import papers. The guy who owned it worked for the Army and was stationed in Germany from 1957 to 1961.

The car has 68,000 original miles and is black with a tan interior. The car is in such nice shape that it just needs new brake hoses and other parts. I have no plan on restoring it... just cleaning everything and making it safe to drive.

15 years... it will be there when i'm ready.
