I am currently restoring my '48 TC with plans to drive to GOF West in Oregon
and further north to tour Western Canada with an entourage of TC's from The
TC Motoring Guild. I must confess, Mike, that I share your concerns. One of
my clearest memories was my first trip to Yosemite in the TC 20 years ago,
traversing the famous "grapevine" portion of I-5 with nothing in my rear view
mirror but the lower portion of a PeterBuilt radiator grill.
