It's a good 7 hour trip to Rocky Mount, Va from north of Philly . .maybe 8 hours (from someone who has driven it 5 times from the WDC area). It might be better to mail it or Fedex it. It's an antique; no FFL needed. Unless you just want to get out of town for awhile. It's a pretty drive in Spring or Fall. But I-81 is jammed with truck traffic. Gunter's workshop and house is pretty much in the middle of nowhere. There is an art museum in Roanoke (basically a railroad town if you like trains - as you climb out of the valley you'll see 100 car coal trains pulled by 5 diesels grinding up the mountain) which is worth seeing and you'll pass a number of the Civil War Valley battlefields.
