We'll be in in El Centro, on our way to Oceanside. MINI of Escondido is one of our pit stops.

Yikes - tomorrow, 6/21 not 9/21. Fat fingers on the iPhone.
Pat, Yes, planning on driving the classic.
Dan, are you bringing your muscle car?

I'm not as insane as you, so no, hehe. I did my 100+ degree days in the Cougar long ago... never again...

Besides, I'm pretty sure there are some areas of Scottsdale that car might still be on watch lists for, hehe.

Carroll Shelby built the three 69 Cougars (Ford Cougars as the Bond museum calls them in England) for the film. Not a fan of the body style they changed to in 69, but sure would love the optional 428 CobraJet motor and drive train that they used in those, hehe.
