    Hi Ya'll, Glad to be part of this forum. We have had a few different wagons over the years. Even though i still own one she has not been on the street for approx 20yrs (1971 AMC Ambassador SST 360/285hp). She is all original down to the hubcaps. Our cars at this time include, 1974 Bricklin SV-1 (360/4spd car)all original-parked, 1968 Rambler Rogue (232/auto) project, 1993 Ford Exploder (kind of a wagon-lol), 1981 Pontiac Granprix w 305tpi th700r4 in it (project). 1997 Lincoln Mark VIII (totaled last year but back together awaiting paint) 1998 Lincoln Mark VIII base model 115,000 miles (mint condition), 1998 Lincoln Mark VIII LSC 125,000 miles-daily driver but in excellent condition. we also collect vintage Kawasaki's z-1 900's (hence the name z1kid).

    thanks for letting me be part of this forum and i hope to help and get help when needed. Peace out, Chuck

    :Welcome: aboard Chuck!
    I had an old friend that lived in the town of Hernando (Citrus County) some years back. I miss the old guy.

    BTW, I had driven a friends Kawasaki 900 Z-1 some 30 yrs ago. It was a pretty wicked machine at the time.

    Jack:cheers:

    Nice little town (Hernando) we are there every weekend (Mom lives there). We have other bikes but nothing can take the place of the original superbike!!

    Thank You all for such a warm welcome to the forum.

    Welcome. I was born in Pennsylvania and I still live in the same state, though I am open to the thought of moving somewhere else if I need to.
