When ya coming thru?
Pins on what map?
I told ya where i seen that green one..... No more than a block or 2 from 66... Where the "rt66 family restaurant" is, and a couple of blocks straight south. There's a Napa right there on the corner too.
I haven't been out there since mid July, was there on 3 trips thru there within a months time prior to that.... I'll be going right by it next weekend and I'm interested to see if it's still there..... Headed to Pontiac for the threshermens show that happens every year labor day weekend. Harvest days should be coming up real soon after that I'll look n see.

Ok so this is the weekend before harvest days.
I'm 20-some miles, straight east from there.
Cool.
Haven't had my fury out in a couple of years. (Thanks covid, and $5+/gas) but doesn't quite fit, as mine's a "b" version not a "c")are there stops along the way? If you guys are making a stop between about Joliet and Pontiac i could probably at least meet up.... Prefer Dwight and South... Thanks for the heads up

Read the full thread, will be picking some people up along the way and stopping at the rt 66 attractions. Pontiac museums on Sunday
That doesn't matter, I had an '84 Fifth Avenue a couple of years ago.

I can’t believe this post hasn’t been active for 2 years. I don’t wanna step on your toes Wyatt, but I’m really glad to see the ServPro back in action again! I been watchin your youtube channel with updates on it.

It took Wyatt 2 years to get back to the Servpro.
With the family growing, a wagon is needed to bring home a bundle of joy from the hospital! Lol.

5 days. 3 tracks. 5 cities.
1500ish miles.
Points ignition. Drum brakes. Non AC car with a bench seat.
The Servpro is amazing!
17.6@77mph in Joliet.
Wyatt if I remember the Servo Polara ran w/ bracket racing precision at IRP. Pretty damn cool for a wagon.

I’m sure Wyatt can tell more but from one of his videos I seen, he cleared over the patina

I tried some of that poppys patina stuff. Hated it. Focused on the interior for a while.
Then I wetsanded/scuffed the poppys stuff smooth (wipe on application = snake oil, I was warned too.) And shot the car with almost a gallon of 2k clear.
I need to spend a weekend really polishing/buffing. I did a quickie before the power tour - and brought my stuff with the intention of tackling it one evening at a hotel or friends house I was staying at. But the week was over before I knew it.

That's a 69.
Didn't the 69s come with a white steering wheel?
