Glad to be back

I used to post here on a fairly regular basis back in 2001, but haven't been here hardly at all in the past few years, mainly because school and work got in the way of my project. After contracting out the rewiring and engine work, I'm finally getting my '77 T1 ready to go, and have caught the aircooled fever again. My todo list is over a page long, but I'm getting close to being able to drive it. This has to be my daily driver starting in September.

It's great to see that, unlike many usenet groups, RAMVA is still going strong - and it looks, according to Google, like it's celebrating its

10th birthday this month!

Also, if anyone has the inclination to look through the archives to see some of their old posts, be forewarned:

How about some "saw blade" style chrome rims as seen in the JC Whitney > catalog? I'm not going for a stock look.

- Me, April 1, 2001 (and I wasn't fooling!)

At least I was 17 (barely) at the time, so I have an excuse. Since I'm

21 now, I guess I still will have an excuse in 4 years.

That's just how things age on usenet. Overall, ramva appears to have done decently. Many other groups that are out there either burned out, or faded away.
