89F Degrees a cool day in the California Valley calls for a Pleasure Cruize | The De Tomaso Forums

...Those who know the 'Old Altamont Road', know where this trestle is. Between Livermore and Tracy.

She ran strong...Very Strong!! Kissing 500HP at 188F (180F Thermostat) Freeway Cruzing. The Oil cooler fan is on, and brought the Oil temp down from 255F+ to 233F. Purrs Beautifully. The Transaxle Oil, at 147F.

A couple of Guys, hanging out of their windows, giving me the 'thumbs up'! During Slowed traffic on the Freeway, I hear..."You're the Man, Brother, You're the Man!!" "Thank You!" What's Not to Like. Might Be the 'Historical Plate'. I'm stopped for Pictures, another guy pulls up in his pick-up. "Is that fast??" "S he's Fast! She FLYS!!"

Dig On the Photos.
