When the ship I was on (USS Kitty Hawk CV-63) came out of the yards, Bremerton Washington, to go back to San Diego, cars for the people moving back was loaded into the hanger bay and flight deck. Since was moving furniture down to San Diego with a U-Haul, I didn't need to ride with the ship. My friend did not want to put his new Z-28 so I made the sacrafice and drove the Z-28 down to San Diego while my little brother drove the U-haul.
