Well, I just became a member a few day ago. I would like to say hello to the people that i know...Darcy...and the people that i will meet within the forum. I have always heard good things about the people of the forum through my friend Darcy. i drive a 1980 White with Cleret interior. I plan to do a lot to my car and would like to included some of your personal info to do this. The things that i have done to my car are not extensive as of yet but included, the front end; rearend rebuilt and poly bushing. I gained Lots of learning experience doing the trailing arms. Well, i really have a lot to tell but i will leave it at that. Thanks for reading!!!!!!

Glad you joined us Rod!

I'm kinda new here as well. I've owned my car for many years, but have never found so much info and support as this forum. Any problem or question you have cannot be answered better than from the members here.

We'll look forward to seeing your pics!

Peace
