Hello from PA
Hi everyone,
My name is Tim and I just joined a few weeks ago. Been into old cars and trucks for a while but, right now, looking for my next one. Interested in a 60-66. Hard finding one here on the east coast that doesn't cost a fortune. In the meantime, I'm enjoying reading the posts and checking out everyone's rides on here. Great site! Tim |

Re: Hello from PA
Thanks John. Right now I'm still looking for my next toy. When I find it, and possibly need some advice, I'll definitely call on you.
thank you, Tim |

Re: Hello from PA
Chvtrkman, You are not far from me. I am down behind Strawberry Acres. Just off route 145. I know the old triangle all too well. Lost my sister there yrs ago. Just glad they improved it since then. Nice to know there are others close by.
