Default Greetings from Germany

My name is Jürgen and i live near Stuttgart. A few months ago i bought a 1968 convertible in silver with a 427 Tri Power and 4 speed transmission. It is a good base but needs some work on it what i will do now over the winter time.
Greetings to all
Jürgen

Welcome Jurgen. My wife and I took a 2 week vacation in Germany in 2011...the best vacation we've ever had. We were in the Black Forest area and visited places like Freiberg, Triberg, Rotenburg ob der Tauber, Fussen, Munich, and a few other places. I especially liked looking at all the castles, I think we visited about 8 in total...some in ruins and some like Neuschwanstein!
