2004 Florida / Ohio

There was an ad on the internet of someone up in Columbus Ohio who wanted to sell a 1959 Chevrolet Nomad Stationwagon, that's how I ended up in Ohio. Me and a friend rented a -04 Chevy PickUp truck in Florida and went up to Columbus, a long trip from sunny Florida to a cold Ohio.
Bought the Nomad, a 1971 Eldorado and a 1960 Buick LeSabre.

Back in Florida we just had to visit "Daytona bike week", no regrets there, one of the biggest motorcycle (Harley Davidson) events in the world.
We got one wrecked Harley and one big red Dodge PickUp truck with us aswell.

Bought a 1972 Cadillac Eldorado Convertible from an older couple in Florida, the odometer had only 85000 actual miles at that time.

This car has some interesting history and all services and repairs are well documented. The first owner "Maurice R. Valente"had it shipped over to europe for a summer vacation in 1975, even found a Danish coin in the car! The car is still in my family.

Maurice lived in N.J. and was an investment banker and a former president of the RCA Corporation among other things.
He committed suicide in September, 1983 at the age of 54, while on vacation in Rome, Italy.
