Camping & moving across the US from duty with an F-4 squadron at NAS Miramar, CA, to Test Pilot School at NAS Patuxent River, MD. Summer of 1969. '63 B Coupe nicknamed "Lemon Drop." Me, my wife, one year old son (Retiring from Navy this Spring with 30 years!), and a miniature Schnauzer. Thanks to my maintenance crew in last squadron, I had a big, aircraft aluminum, L-shaped bracket that bolted to the back rack (which I still have!) that held two large suitcases, a Coleman Lamp, etc., and large pouches and straps! Great trip! 1-yr old and dog sat on top of folded tent and other stuff. Seat belts?? It's 1969! When I bought the car in San Antonio (after, sadly, I lost reverse gear in my '60 Super 90 Cab), I had the dealer add lap belts! Revolutionary, at the time! Car is now belongs to David Patrick, thanks to David Jones, and he's restoring it! Fun times!!

Those photos are just about the perfect 356 experience in my mind. 2 random questions for you Wayne:

• In the photo with your 1 year old, what is that green thing just in front of the standard coleman lantern?

• What sort of roof rack was that?

[Wayne Arny]

The green thing was a "tent heater!" And some of the nights on those "western stretches" got a little chilly!! (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fpci0kmlhtI) This looks like the model I had, but it's not, the principal is the same! It worked!

The rack was a VW rack I bought that "fit" on the coupe. The only issue was: When it was loaded down with all the stuff I had up there, one of the cross rails rubbed on the roof. Consequently, to this day, unless David Patrick has already stripped off the original paint and the second layer I had put on in Tijuana in '68, the "rub mark" remains!!
