TL;DR
Incredibly old car, very very very long trip.

THE PROJECT:
They used to make cars to last.
-Yeah, sure, but you wouldn't dare take a 38 year old car on a 10,000+ km trip to another continent, would you?
As a matter of fact, I would.
-Prove it!
Sure! Sit back and follow my progress! I'll post updates regularly so you'll have weeks of fun following me! I'll even hook up a camera and document the whole thing, make a great documentary out of it!
[Think Top Gear special except there's no crew, all the events are real and all the characters that appear are real people I meet in real situations!]
Can I even make it? Let's find out!
Get weeks of fun following me!
Keep in mind, it's not a trivial endeavor, there's no guarantee I'll make it. But that's what makes following it fun, isn't it? Be a part of this adventure, see the people I meet, the experiences I have and the challenges I meet along the way!
As for OldSchool, he's a '77 Opel Kadett, still with all his original parts!

PERKS:
Highest donor may choose to come along on the trip!
Anybody who donates can ask about joining me (us) on a segment of the trip to experience a piece of history! (the experience of driving in OldSchool is really something else, nothing like driving in a modern car). If you seem like a nice person and I have room in the car I will be happy to bring you along. :)
Anybody who donates can mail me and I'll take a picture holding a piece of paper with their name on it in a city of their choice (any city which is (roughly) located along my route).
You can also order a souvenir.
Contact me about putting a POWERED BY YOU sticker on OldSchool.
You have an idea on a perk you'd like? Contact me!

ROUTE:
The route is not yet firmly set and will largely depend on current events in the region. Don't take this to mean I'm not serious about the project because I very much am. The thing is, where ever I end up going, it will be a noteworthy event, you will get to see a veteran car attempting an epic journey (at least 10,000 km).
My original idea was a trip around the Mediterranean but as the north of Africa becomes less and less likely I'm turning my focus towards Asia, maybe to where the Great Wall meets the sea (that's some 25,000 km, stuff would happen, it would be a lot of fun to follow)

SHARE:
If you can't help out with a donation but like the idea, you can still help out. Just click the share on facebook button, maybe a friend will share it with another friend who will share it with a friend who can donate. :)

DONATE:
Any donation is a big donation! If you'd like to see this happen, try to donate, it will help!

CONTACT:
Feel free to contact me with any comments, ideas, suggestions, questions, advice...
Looking forward to hearing from you!
