Started pouring on the way down, was not a problem. Thanks to Rainex on the windscreen I did not need to turn on the very small single wiper blade at any time, even during the heaviest downpour.
More importantly, with the work I did last year to wind and water proof the Red Chev, kept about 95% of the water on the outside, where it belongs.
Car ran like a charm, temperature was good, just had to allow for the back brakes fading to zero when they got wet, but boy when they dry out they come back nice and sharp.
Overview of the trip, sat on 45 MPH most of the way, water usage was zero, oil usage was zero, oil dropped, well that's another thing.
It’s a vintage car, so, naturally, its engine will have some improvements needed to run like how a sports car would. But you have to give it some credit since your Red Chevy lasted that long, and help you make return trips to Kelly’s Café, which can only mean one thing: Chevies are durable ;)
