    We were all greenhorns once, some of us while we were members of this site ourselves. I'm one of easily a dozen guys who came here when they bought their first car in highschool. So most of us know how it is.

      You are most welcome! And yep... we are here to help, we all want to see these cars stay on the road - that way more of them will be around in 20 years when they are 'retro' and all the rage because they are the last of the big RWD cars
      Boxes being the most desirable of course because they are the only ones with a hint of 'old school' style...

          We are here to help them last longer.

          I fell in love with Panthers with the 79 LTD CV S 351w 2-door that my mom had. Maroon on Maroon... vinyl interior. It was a hand-me-down from my Mom's, Mom's, Mom. When we finally let it go in 92, it needed u-joints, carb, headliner, and God knows what else (that's all I can remember). I miss that car. I would drive the hell out of that car if we had been able to keep it.
