Webmaster SW Chicago Burbs 22805 Posts Member since: 2008/1/7 0:00	Yeah, I'm talking to you! As I was doing some site maintenance today, I was checking a few stats. Can you believe we've had 100 people sign on in the last 2 weeks and not post anything? I know you're out there, I can see you!!! So here's your chance. Even if you don't think you have anything to add, trust me, you do. We like having you. So use this post as an opportunity to say hello. Post a picture. Tell a joke. Ask a question. Anything. Everyone is welcome! I am looking forward to seeing some responses!!!!! Matthew

Do you simply dream of owning one and are trying to learn? If so, please, just ask us and we can direct you to the best bang for the buck. You may be surprised what you can afford these days.

Just incredibly busy with work, life, etc., so not a lot of time to post. Basically just counting down the days 'till spring and taking the cover off the Vette! Trying to figure out if I want to install a Corsa cat-back system this year or not. I've also been going through all of my fishing gear, getting ready for the warmer weather. Cleaned and re-spooled all of my reels (7 spinning reels, 3 baitcasters - yeah, that took a while!). Went through my tackle boxes and pitched some old crap to make room for some new crap. All that and workin' like a fiend. Hope y'all are doing well! Ron

They have been on a shelf waiting for some months, and i had the car on jack stands for a starter anyway. I also got my antique plate on too. Getting her ready for the 1/8 mile track this spring. My mustang driving buddy has called me out. I need sticky tires & launch practice.

Senior Guru Kingsport, TN 306 Posts Member since: 2007/7/6 0:00	Well, I don't really consider myself a "lurker", but I don't post often enough to be a reg either, I suppose. The beauty of this forum is the amount of knowledge here, and great folks that are willing to share it. Over the past several weeks, you guys have given answers, advice and ideas to C4Williams on a regular basis. That willingness to help has resulted in this young man amassing a bunch of great parts, ideas, and know-how, and he will have a really nice '85 when we get it all together. That, my friends, is what this forum is all about!
