Default Can I play too??

Hi all!!
I've been lurking in the background reading, listening and trying to learn how to use this forum for several weeks. It's really great that there is a place like this to share ideas and learn more about our cars. :lol:
So far I've spent half the morning trying to get this "signature" thing right. Lots of questions still. Also I'm trying to put a personal page together but it's about to drive me nuts :cry and will probably be "under construction" for awhile yet. :D There's alot of seriously fine cars in this group and I hope I'm able to carry my weight here without looking like an idiot! :crazy:

We all started somewhere - most of us looking like this when it came to posting signatures, pictures, etc -> :crazy:

Personal pages, hey I get my 12 year old and 18 year old kids to do it for me :D

BTW - no idiots here! You are just like the rest of us and will be learning on the run. Welcome Aboard! :chevy

Beautiful car!...the white top looks beautiful with that body color!

Looking at your sig. it looks like you are way ahead of me. As you can see I still can't get my pictures smaller without them distorting and looking fuzzy :confused:

Nice car. I've been on here a long time and your signature is way better than mine. Don't be shy, there are no dumb questions.

Gee, thanks all for the warm welcome. I think I've found a new home!

"arethe wheels the torq thrust ll"....they're from American Racing (200S). I originally wanted Cragar's but the off-set wasn't enough to clear the calipers.

Welcome aboard! Do you have any pics of your speaker box for your MTX's. I'm about to install a sub in my '79.
I made the boxes to fit behind the seats and to be fully functional with the top down (factory radio :U ). I use a Sony remote control head unit with four 4x6 Infinity's in the dash and kick panels, two 6x9 Infinity's in the back, two MTX subs (one in back and one under the passenger side dash). Also installed a Sony 10-disc player behind the passenger seat. Subs are run from a MTX amp and the rest of the system is powered by a Alpine amp. The stereo am/fm, cassette and CD changer is controlled with a credit card sized wireless remote that I velcro'd to my console.

I really wanted to keep my dash "stock" looking, in case of prying eyes (this is New Oleans ya know ). Sounds great and you can hear it very clear and loud :D with the top down at any speed. I sure hope I get these pics in right...You have much more room in the back than I do. :p:

My Vette started life orange .... it was Red when I bought it. I love it red, and never thought it would look good in orange! But, your car sure looks great in orange.

Welcome to the shark pond! I see you changed to cool wave... looks better than the first one in your signature :lol: :lol: :lol:
