Welcome Steve.
Sounds like you have an awesome cruiser there. In regards to posting pics, most of us around here have set up a Photobucket account (www.photobucket.com). It is probably the easiest way to upload photos to the internet. Can't wait to see some pictures and more specs of the old girl.

Hi Folks,
I dont know a great deal about cars but my partner (TURBOTAXI) encouraged me to join. All I know is you put the gas in the foot down and they go fast. I drive the au turbo most of the time - and beat the XR6 Turbo when they are head to head! I like horses, country living, good wine and pretty things (TURBOTAXI is the exception - he 'aint pretty) As a lady I dont like playing with cars too much, but I do my own fluid checks at my partners insistance. Its his job to actually do maintenance. Anyone else like horse riding? I have a couple of horses here to play with, though I dont get much time for riding between kids and work. I used to ride with my partner on the back of his bikes and enjoyed that too, but it has been a while. He has a new bike now so maybe we can do that again. Anyway just wanted to say hi and get posting (to shut him up) so HI! Jen |
