    Hello :)
    I use a computer in the office all day long, and not big on email, etc, at home. So that's why you've never seen me before.

    What brings me here is that I want to get a nice 4 door V8 auto mav for my wife. I've got a '71 that I've driven off and on, winters included, since I was 18. Took it to the Roundup last summer. Car got documented for what it's worth, and this year it will be a new ride to Dearborn.

    Just wanted to poke around in case there's something that would work here.

    For you 'all that were there, really enjoyed your cars at the Roundup!
    Cheers from Minnesota!
    -Chuck Campbell

    Hope to see you in Dearborn!

    Thanks Kyle.
    Bet your car is a LOT better! LOL.

    There were game shows, like "This is your life..." When I sit in my car, I was sitting in that same spot, in front of that wheel and dash, not to mention the funky 3 speed.....and the small back seat--not too comfortable.

    Memories........Nostalgia has gotten the best of me, to tell you the truth.;)
