and guess what I saw. A barn with a bunch of british cars up under it. I saw it on hwy72 as we drove by. There are still plenty of gems in the rough out there guys. I was with two other people and so could not stop to check it out :frown: Unfortunately I will be leaving this little Mississippi town(Corinth) tomorrow and traveling back to Asheville. I might be back her in the future and if I am alone I will check around a bit more. Still looking for that Big Healey project car of my dreams.
 
I go through Corinth on 72 all the time, Kim.....never seen it before...any better directions?

Oh, Corinth is only a couple hours from me - if you continue on 72 through Huntsville, AL, I'm 2 miles off the highway!!
 
Oh, I met a girl at camp from Corinth when I was but a lad...always wondered..

I came through Huntsville on the way, saw all the space shuttle stuff just off the highway. The barn/shed was on the left before you get to Corinth on the left if coming in from the east. I will look for it again tomorrow when I go out if we go the same way. The folks I am with ar talking about checking out shiloh battlefield, so we will see how it goes. Its just an old gray wood building. I never been through the northern part of alabama nor ever in MS, though I have been through Memphis plenty of times on the interstate. I never realised how close some places are.
 
Kim, when you get home there should be a small package waiting for you!! :wink: :thumbsup:

Oh, shoot. I could have stopped and picked up some things from you Tony. I had no idea. I was unsure of the route or geography of that area. I always figured huntsville was lower down in AL closer to the coast. We went back via shilo battlefield and checked it out and then took hwy64 to nashville then I40 home. Not the same route. Long rainy day through open country.
 
I got a feeling I will be going back to that plant again in the future and will pass through huntsville and check out the space thing and see if I can look you up Tony. Man, I had no idea. I should have mentioned the trip before I left for it and could have checked out your cars. Dang, what bad luck. next time I will be smarter. :wink:
 
Plus, you need a copy of "theList" for your glovebox!

Hey, thats great Tony. Yeah, I can see where that could be a life saver in a breakdown or something. I will print this off when I can and will send you my info in case I can help someone. I am very tired. bloody smoke alarm went off in the hotel at 3am in Corinth last night and I also have mini-van lag from the long drive and lost an hour also. Time for bed.
 
I have a good friend who lives in Corinth. I'll be visiting him in a month and just might take the Bugeye. I'll also be heading over to Hunstville for a Pontiac Fiero get together, so maybe I'll swing by and visit you Tony. :smile:
 
Absolutely! Come by - you must be going out to my friend Ed Park's place - The Fiero Factory.
 
Tonys list of folks that will help out with your LBC when you are on the road.
