The transmissions were now dead on the Nova and Oldsmobile. We managed to roll both cars downhill to a large, graveled clearing along the road (thank you, gravity). This would be our camping spot for the night. Beer in hand, we prepared for the stationary destruction phase. We had three broken down cars, the curiosity…
After doing my best Indiana Jones impression, it was my turn to drive. I hopped into the Oldsmobile 88 Royale. Compared to the little Nova, it was a tank. The dirt road we were on was wide enough to fit a logging truck with a bit of space on each side. It was close to…
