I have a line on an original untouched 72 Burb with a small block, automatic and factory A/C. I am buying it from the Estate of the original owner. It has 175,000 miles but has maintenance records ( which I haven't seen) from day one including oil and filter changes every 3000 miles and for the last 10/15 years has only been driven short distances three or four times a year.

My question is... I live 1800 miles away do I fly there and drive it home
( when the weather is nicer) or trailer it home? If I did decide to drive I will put new tires on before I drove it home.
