There's at least two more blog posts coming as I get caught up with photos and writing from the past couple weeks, plus we shot a video with Petrolicious this morning in LA, so that content should be going up sometime in the near future...so there's still a little bit of a tail to the trip. :)

Might have to go finish up Canada, missed a few provinces IIRC. Or if you're really up for it, Europe would be cool.

Canada +1. Beluga whales in Churchill, Manitoba. And a really big Moose Statue in MooseJaw, Saskatchewan.

So awesome..

It was really a privilege to watch this trip happen on the web, and to have met Scott in Shasta and this last week in LA.

Thank you for sharing. It was truly generous, to let us experience the ride with you. I'm jealous. But only because I have not had the opportunity yet. I hope my chance comes sooner than later.

Thank you again!

Scott, your trip will reverberate for many years among all of us you've met along the way.

Thanks so much for being such a willing and eloquent Correspondent during your many months and many miles of travels.

Your (new) friend,

Paul

Scott, thanks so much for giving all of us the ability to travel across the USA with you. I enjoyed traveling along with your blog.

Also, I want to say thanks for changing up your plans and visiting us here in Arizona and coming out to see our Nissan facility.

Great trip, and glad your home safely. It was nice to meet you in person, hope to see you in Solvang.

thanks so much for documenting your trip with pictures along the way. we are blessed to live in such a beautiful country and you shared so much of the places and sights that this poor boy will never live to see, but always planned on one day. I enjoyed your blog, and if that book comes out, put me down for an autographed copy please.

you make me proud to own a 1600 and the fact that the roadster made that trip as old as it is, is indeed incredible. will there be another adventure?

i sure hope so, if only to live it through your camera lens, and encounters with all the interesting places and people you meet.

That's such a great read. And those prophetic words from the very first post:
I’m not going to worry about the cosmetics of the car; I figure I can make it pretty once it’s done getting pounded on this trip.
