First business-related road trip in nearly three years, flew into Atlanta earlier today (always entertaining, working your way through Jackson-Hartsfield International) and drove to Montgomery via the scenic route.  I dumped off the freeway at Anniston, AL, and meandered on south to Alabama’s capital city.  Great begin on the highway again in a different part of the country, although unfortunately the trip means I’ll miss both the Triumph and Healey Christmas parties this weekend.

Anyway, as per usual, the search for LBCs continues.  Didn’t see any out-of-production Brit cars today, but did see a highly entertaining assortment of other vehicles, starting last night with this Honda Civic:

Figure on three full days in Montgomery, then off to Warner Robins, GA, for two days.  The search will continue…
