Just printed out Map Quest directions 4 hour drive, 220 mile trip. I might be thinking about coming up there the day before. I'm sure there is good hotels in that area. I just hate to leave my ride unattended at night. Any suggestions guys? Thanks Tony

The Skyline motel listed on the Volocars site Volo Auto Museum - Accommodations is right down the street. I've never stayed there, but its up on a hill off of RT 12. It's an old style hotel so you could park right in front of your room. I'm driving by there tonight. I'll try and take a closer look.

1-2 adults and 2 kids. I hope you guys don't mind seeing a somewhat rusted GN but it's a work in progress. Being a newbie, I am really looking forward to seeing the pristine and restored GNs to get ideas on how to best rebuild my car.
