Default Hello from Germany

The forum is not new to me (reading here for a long time) and now I finally registered.
Currently I am working, together with a friend, on a 68 convertible. The car will be converted into a track racer. Hopefully weŽll be on the track summer next year.

Thanks.

Still a long way to go until the Vette is on the road again - especially as we in Germany do not have the recourses as you in the US.
