Ok, I'm afraid the car isn't particularly retro, and the trip isn't as epic as any of the other similar threads around. But I want to document it and if it inspires someone else, then it's worth it. If not I can come back and reminisce.
As my first thread I suppose I better start at the beginning, right at the beginning.
I've lurked here for a while, I originally found the site (several times) through the classifieds, liking what I saw I eventually found my way onto the main board. But never really posted as I either have nothing interesting to add, or not being great with words I tend to waffle.
This I intend to make up for with pictures, unfortunately I'm not great at those either, so I will start with someone elses picture from a classified I missed way back.
Now you have more knowledge then you wanted about how I got here, I can tell you whilst here I stumbled across jurea 's thread about his trip.

I had in my head a picture I was going to use of his car in Laedals tunnel at one of the rest stops, but I might have imagined this or seen it elsewhere. But have this instead if you've not already clicked on the link.
Now I had a plan..
