So the TD took its first trans-mountain expedition - almost 1000 kilometres in 13 hours. Hardly a land speed record, but 27991 soldiered over the Rogers Pass and into Okanagan wine country. The aft mounting pins on the hard top fractured, so Lucas-spec Whitworth-sized duct tape held the corners down. The engine never missed a beat, the radiator stayed full, and we burned no oil. We did leak a bit of 5-50 Castrol on the pavement outside Macdonalds in Revelstoke, though.
