It's ONLY a 10.5 hour drive each way. Google says it's only 2HR 5 MIN to fly though.

Re: Bowtie468's Extreme '68 BuildPage
Thank you guys , only a few items left to complete on it before road testing begins . I'm actually holding out on those until I get my new lift installed in the shop . Been needing ( at least that's what I told the wife) one for years and finally bit the bullet on one .
