Since the '26 is new to me (only 60 miles so far), I made a practice run to Sunday's car show location and back, about 22 miles round trip. I haven't yet tried cruising more than 45 mph, so avoided major highways- no problems. I suspect that it can be driven at the 55 speed limit, but I first need to address a little play in the steering box- it's not like any box I ever worked on.
Actually, what I really need to do first is join POCI's Early Times chapter, where I can get good helps with this 98 year old Pontiac!
