Hello All
Just signed up a couple of days ago. I've been lurking for awhile after hearing about this board from the guys on Canadian Rodder.
No car at the moment, but I am always looking for something. Hoping to snag a 60's Dodge Monaco/Polara, or a 60-63 Falcon. Dream car is a Woodie. Budget is tight, but I am always looking, for something that I can drive & fix as I go.
Been fascinated with cars since I read my 1st Hot Rod magazine & my 1st CARtoons mag. That was awhile ago (OK not that far off), and for some reason I stopped thinking about oldies...not sure why?!? but a friend released the bug again when he showed up with his 58 Vette & 72 Lemans.
I couldn't afford to buy my own car at the time so I tried to do something a little different...I organized a charity cruise in 2005 (Amanda's cruise for JA), and have plans on making it bigger & better in coming years....so until I get my own car, it gets me close to the cars I love.
I'm not the most knowledgeable guy when it comes to cars, but I am willing to learn.
Looking forward to hanging out here at night after the youngun's head to bed. Amanda (who the cruise is named after) is 10 as of 2006, and Sara is 4. Both gorls birthdays are coming up in the next few months.
