Bill Blaszak of Tacoma sends his uncle Bob Blazak a cross-country care packet via History Channel Great Race entrant Nelson in a 1925 Pierce Arrow. The 4000 mile route from Tacoma to Haverhill passes New Castle for lunch, with envelope of promotional items delivered at Mercer and Washington streets. Blaszak hopes for a smooth trip as the vintage cars tackle the long journey.
