Did a road trip from Alberta to the Black Hills of South Dakota, six days 2521 miles driven, saw Deadwood, Sturgis, Crazy Horse Monument, Mount Rushmore, drove Needles Highway, Badlands, Little Bighorn Battlefield.

This was a trip to remember, can`t beat the ride in a Fuselage Mopar, highly recommend ya`ll take your cars out on the road. Posted some pics!

I did that same route on my Harley many years ago before that area got McDonalded and Walmarted. One of my most memorable trips of my entire lifetime. I remember stopping while going through Spearfish Canyon and drinking that pure ice cold water right out of the river. Never tasted water so good in my life.

Dang I missed ya. I see you found a few car related spots in the area - and you found the ole green Chrysler that they want too much money for, haha.

Lovely, absolutely lovely. These pics say a million words about tooling around in a big ol' fuselage Chrysler. Nice! Now, if only I could get mine off its *** and running dependably I could be doing the same thing.

Did you figure out what your starter problem was?
 
Thanks for all the nice comments, we did have a great time! That `55 Chrysler was the only forwardlook we saw. We did see a couple of fuselage cars, a `69 Newport and a `72 Plymouth Suburban, that one surprised me, don`t see those very often!

That's amazing! Great pics, I love road trips in vintage cars, thanks for sharing.
 
Good On Ya, I grew up in the Black Hills, know it quite well. Still have a ton of family there. Bought and sold a 69 Charger 500 in Rapid City in 73. Didn't even know what it was, cept it was a funny looking Charger. It had Hemi badges on it,but a 383 inside. Damn what stupid things a 22 year old does! Traded it for 72 Fury Gran Coupe. Looks like a great trip!
 
I can't wait!

Three more years and I can wander around to all of North America's beautiful pit-stop's and car show's in one of my 78's like Will & Ellie.
