  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    Adam,
    My Dad and I went through the same dilemma a half a dozen times. Selling off his and my collection. The '55 Roadmaster a;ways won out over the others. It was the right choice for us. ...

    That's a very good analogy.
    Those happen to be my number 1 and number 2 favourite movies....

    LowFlyLark Time for a mild custom.

    :shock: My jaw hit the floor as this last chapter unfolded but good stories have surprise endings.

    You're quality and attention to the smallest of details is commendable. The Roadmaster is in good hands (for now, then comes the 2 door, then the Convertible, then...)
