Hi guys, here a link to the classic oldsmobile site where I had a post on my trip through the States. I started in LA, went to Bend OR where my brother lives, and then drove back to LA to ship the car to the Neterhelands.

As you can see in the other pictures, the car arrived undamaged. I had the car loaded up with about 600 pounds of luggage. I collect radio's and tube amps, and bought anything up on the way to and from oregon. Also, I bought a nice toolset to work on the car.

 

Just in case your are curious, I transported this jukebox home in my '74 CC. It sat upright, rolled in facing forward, and fit, with the top end sticking up out of the hole formed by the open tailgate window. I was able to roll up the tailgate behind it. These were big cars.

 

Here's your pic from the top of Pilot Butte in Bend, Oregon. I was doing some business in Bend one day and decided to take the 5 min drive to the top. Quite a view. (For those unfamiliar, Pilot Butte is basically a 800' foot tall mountain smack dab in the middle of the city.)

 

Thanks for the link to the other site with the of your trip here in the States Martin, very enjoyable!
