Welcome. You have come to the right place! This is a pretty busy board with plenty of "regulars" that can help you with any aspect of your restoration. Also, look through the threads in the various sections - a lot of ground has been covered in the past, and it's all here. Also, have you downloaded the "BOR" yet? There's 400+ pages of tech help to read through.

Best,
Steve

Not sure if I got the Roster? Does it come in the same email as the activation?

Welcome to the club Joe and you have a sweet little ride there. It was also nice of you to dress up for the picture too. You will find all the help you need right in the LA basin. There are many members within 2 hours of you and some even closer on a good day on the freeways.

Nice sedan.

Its not easy to see but it looks like your rear axle castle nuts were replaced with regular nuts.

If this is the case they need to be fastened or replaced with the correct nuts an cotter pinned .

Safety first.:smile:

Thanks for the welcome and I can't wait to get this show on the road. I have to look for this roster so I can find a good local mechanic unless you guys have any suggestions for a mechanic in the LA area?

Welcome to the Club from downunder, Joe!

That's a nice colour and the car looks pretty solid - it's a great start!

Cheers,
