Hey Jack... if you get this far in whatever conveyance you decide to drive,
consider making us a stopover along the way, or at least someone to call if
you need to be towed in. We're about 35 miles east of the intersection of
Interstates 10 and 75 just after you enter Florida and we'd be happy to put
you up for the night. Beds, food and even hot running water in case you
need it. Nothing fancy, but at least it's free. Oh yeah, and TR6 parts...
>From here it's about 4 1/2 hours to Sebring. Cheers, Don
