I don’t buy sight unseen anymore
Well that didn’t last long. I’ve found a new Verde.
I’m flying out after work and taking it from Portland to Seattle before driving home. Anybody on Oppo along the route? I’ve planned for 4 days of driving (2 more than really required) just in case something or everything breaks.
Andiamo!

Good luck. Glad to see you back in an alfa. It’s such a shame what happened.

Good luck man! I’m in Joliet off I-80, but if you’re taking I-90 then 294 around Chicago, I’m out of the way. Enjoy, and make sure you post some photos.

Crap, you’re just going to miss The Old School Reunion on Sunday. If I wasn’t awaiting a delivery from a certain flying, stick legged animal, I’d meet up with you in Seattle.

Best of luck. Hopefully this one will give you less headaches.
I read the other post, and I must have glossed over it. What started the fire? Any ideas?

I’m at the tail end of your route! I work in Deaborn! Pretty sure you’re gonna be awful tired after that drive, though. I drove to Vancouver and back from Royal Oak a few years ago, and man...I hope you have a co-pilot or two, or have planned to stay at a hotel mid-way.

Not sure exactly what led to the backfire, but it backfired and a tremendous amount of fire came out of the intake and light the fuel hoses and wiring harness right away.

Looks like your route takes you through Fargo on 94. I’m an hour north in Grand Forks. If you have any issues in my neck of the woods I’m always available to help out.

I’m in Portland. I would gladly grab a beer with a fellow oppo to wish you on your way. That is, if you haven’t left already.

When will you be in Portland? If the timing is right I might be able to offer up a lift to look at the car.

Hey, I left Portland early on Thursday, but that would have been great. Car was 5 miles from Vista Point on the Columbia River. Oregon rocks.
