I say come here, buy a rat rod then sell it once the trip is over

Sounds fun. I live right off of Route 66, west of St. Louis, Missouri. This stretch of 66 is now called highway 44, and there is actually a Route 66 museum right around the corner. Give a shout when you get in town and Id be glad to show you my VW stable and any local attractions you would like the enjoy.

Thanks heaps Kangaboy! I'll take you up on that offer.

Buguy, I love that idea, but my wife is really not a 'drive a ratrod across the US' kinda girl. She likes AC and comfort. I'd be happy to do it in a pickup though. In fact, I like the idea of buying something, driving it for 5 weeks and then selling it off (or taking it home though that's probably not practical).

I feel ya. My girl would never do it either. Might be a pain dealing with trying to sell a car on your vacation though.
