Me too....and yes the Oval will be making The Classic, even though I am thinking about towing it. Are you driving the 57 or towing it?

I have put a lot of miles on my 56 since getting it a little over a year ago so I am thinking along the same lines of keeping miles off the motor. I will probably tow it but that could change between now and then.
