I put 600 break in miles on the GS so it was time for a stretch of the legs on the highway. Did the 400 mi. round trip to Effingham to see Mike Yagers collection and pick up a couple items. I met a guy there that had just picked up his new 427 vert. at Mac Mulkin Chev. in New Hampshire and was driving it back to his home in California. The place is definitely worth a visit.

Yager's collection is one of the most dense (important cars divided by total cars) I've seen. Just having CERV I is amazing.
