    Welcome to GA! Just let me warn you, come July and August, beautiful is not the word you will be using. Hope your coupe has good ventilation.

    I am about 3 hours north of you. You are in a good location in that a 3 hour drive will get you to Atlanta and almost to Orlando, lots of car things in that range.

    Funny...
    I gota house in Cherry Springs Fl, about 20 miles from you, off exit 11.
    I'm in the process of moving back to Louisville Ky. I'v been living down here for a couple months doing a dedicated trucking route between Fl. and W. Texas.

    I'm not old enough, or rich enough to be a "snowbird", but I try to find work down here durring the colder months, as I hate winter.

    Wish you had posted this a couple weeks ago.

    Hey thanks for all the replys. Yes slick39, my coupe was in CK Deluxe, a very big honor for me! It is a 1936 Ford 5 window, mild custom. I will have it here in a couple of weeks and can start cruisin again. I am originally from the northeast corner of IN so year round cruisin is lookin good!
    Take care and thanks again all! coupeman.

    I used to live in Valdosta - does that count?

    I liked the town & the location...close to a reasonable number of things w/in a short drive.
