Default Jim Bailey's summer vacation

Tomorrow morning very early I leave for Lubbock Texas to visit my daughter driving an 06 Mercedes. I may be picking up a 1980 928 with 45,000 miles ac needs freon . I will be returning on the 20 th. So you will be missing my "helpful" comments unless I grow tired of driving their Cobra, Testarossa , 930 turbo , Lotus V-8 turbo, rat rod ,slope nose cab , etc and jump on their computer. Plans are to visit Dallas on Wednesday but who knows. Anyone needing parts just contact Tom and he will take care of it. I need a vacation

Ok - I guess you can go just as long as you're back in time to take my winter readiness order..

Guess the next best thing to crusing 1/2 across the country in a 928 is a Mercedes..

Enjoy the well earned Vacation!!!!

Yes, the '80 is the best
With an available selection of cars like that, you know that we will be anticipating a return to school type of report ... " What I did on my summer vacation" : have a good one!

I WANT a picture of JB in the Lotus V8 turbo.
If it's anything like the Espirit turbo 4 I got to sit in, that passenger compartment is going to be a weee bit tight.

Have fun.
Now the 928 world is going to fall apart.

How long will you be in Dallas? Maybe the Texas posse can get together and get you some real TexMex barbecue. Hell, we might even put some freon in the 80 928 for you. Hate to see you drive all the way back with no AC.
