Default Forum Thank you.

I have never received more insightful help on my projects as I have had here. I sincerely thank each of you for all of your suggestions, and technical guidance on all of my foolish questions. Hopefully I will get to meet some of you down the road when my work in progress gets closer to where I want it.


Thanks all!

This is the greatest place for help on any project. I have found lots of great info here and have done way more stuff to my vette than I would have done without the forums help. It is truly a great resource.

Stu,
I too value the forum as a resource for what could be very frustrating and costly otherwise. Thanks for your inputs as well.

I'm pretty new here & I've received so much help, I try to Help other members out as much as I can!
It's also nice that when 2 people have different Ideas as to what a problem could be..... they think it through..... WITHOUT Flaming each other!!! To me it's more Important that these old cars stay on the road! I'm NOT on here to show off how much I know (or don't) about cars.... I'm here 'cause it's nice to talk with other car guy's!!
