Greetings From Tom in North Dakota!
When I signed up for this site I did enter a profile, but I didn't do a proper introduction - so here goes...
I have this car "bug" really bad. Do you know the feeling? In my case it is really a curse as I spend pretty much all I earn toward cars and car parts. So much for my future. It isn't wise, but I'm sure enjoying it. :) Anyway, I have always had an affinity toward early 60's compact cars. Here is what I have:
- 1962 Ford Falcon four-door station wagon with 170 six c.i.d., and a factory four-speed (Dagenham)
- 1962 Pontiac Tempest/Lemans convertible with power-steering and air-conditioning
- 1963 Mercury Comet S-22 Sportster hardtop with V-8 and factory four-speed
- 1963 Oldsmobile Jetfire with a 215 c.i.d. aluminum V-8 (factory turbo-charged/water injected) with air-conditioning and factory four-speed
I've belonged to a couple of other groups in the past in which there hadn't been much activity, but this one looks more promising.
Thanks for having me!
Best Regards,
Tom
