hi, there everybody, i've just posted my introduction on the events forum, and just realised this was were i should be posting, so i hope i haven't ticked anyone off - feels like wonderin' into the pro-players locker-room wearing a fans hat! i'm still more comfortable with a set of spanners than a keyboard.
i've spent a couple of hours enjoying reading around the site and think it's fantastic. thanks for having me as a member, and thanks for all the work people have obviously put in to the site.
i bought myself a '48 Pontiac Silver Streak a couple of months ago, when i should have been buying a new house, so who says you get wiser as you get older? ...and i haven't regretted it for a moment, even though it's been playing up since i got it delivered!
i've been getting messed about by motors since i was a youngster, like everyone else here i'm sure, though i haven't had my own place to work on anything for a decade; i've been driving various 'sensible' pieces of modern-ish rubbish - and my God it feels good to own something with a soul again! over here in the uk we don't see as many 'yank tanks' (no offence, it's said with love) as we'd like, but in fulfilling a life's ambition with my poncho, i hope to do my little bit towards the cause.
thanks for the inspiration and deep respect to the experience on show.
