Default Time For An Intrduction

Hello To Everyone:
I bought my "73" in Oct/06, from the original owner, with 44xxx mi.
I`ve hung around here for a while now reading and collecting valuable information. I feel I got a reasonably good deal on my car, and I would like to thank everyone.
Rod

Look GREAT, especially the color, but I think it needs to be lowered. Too much dead cat space - the space between the tops of the tires and the fender lip. Love the color!
Cheers,
Pete
