Thanks...bought the car new in 1988..(long story behind it Laughing

)I live in Welland Ontario Canada...15 minutes from Niagara Falls. Ive picked away at it for 18 years and dont want to add up the goodies Embarassed

but it has just turned 50,000 miles(80,000km) and is only summer driven.My car was in the June and July issue 2003 in HPP magazine when they did their 7 part series on bolt ons.It was my 15 minutes of fame. Im a design engineer for a Forge co. that produces much of the drive train components for the Dana corporation..ball yokes; journals..yoke sleeves etc. I plan on moving to B.C. in the next few years where my son lives..(Vancouver area).I have pics of the car but have never tried to post. Can I e mail and have you post for me??
Thanks
Bill

Wow, a true celebrity!

Welcome, hopefully we'll get a chance to meet up when you get out to BC.

That sounds awesome Bill. There are threats of a big gathering in B.C. late in the summer. Keep an eye on the 'Gatherings' board for info.

Welcome aboard!!! You're not too far from my old stomping grounds in Michigan. Much colder in the winter time out there than here. I almost wish I could move back sometimes. The Navy brought me out here and I found a job I like after I retired, so I stayed here.

Beautiful car, man. I love that Formula look. What kind of shifter is that? Never seen one like that.

Thanks; the shifter is a B&M ratchet shifter that I modified..have since put the T handle back on(better grip)...thats a shift lite in the vent that I fabricated...Summits generic of the Proform one..hacked up the case and made up a plate to fit the components...
