I have been lurking around here for a while and thought it was time to say hello! So HELLO! My name is Chris, I am from St. Louis, Missouri in The US. I have a '77 LHD tintop Look for a build thread in the "show us your ride" section! Edit: Here is the link:http://thelatebay.com/index.php?threads/teaching-an-old-dog-new-tricks.21715/ Here is a pic of what it looks like now : and a quick rendering of the direction that I am going! (I know that the rendering above is of an prototype bay) Looking at a touring style with some modern day touches to make it more enjoyable on today's highways! Let me know what you think!
Hello & Welcome from The Colonial Contingent Better keep us updated as you go along, we love pictures
Terrordales, I am curious about some of the things in your signature. Would I be correct in assuming that the Colonial Contingent would be us members located in the United States? And what exactly is MOTTLBOFC?
leadsled2020 No, I'm in Australia not the States, although I used to live in Connecticut. Although members from any of the colonies, past or present, are welcome. We do not discriminate, even Canadians & New Zealanders are welcome MOTTLBOFC stands for Member Of The TLB Old Farts Club , a sub group of TLB The TLB Malt Circle is a sub group who are not averse to a drop of malt whisky, preferably Scottish but a couple of members have snuck in their Irish whiskies
Terrordales Thanks for the clarification! May I petition to join The Colonial Contingent? Australia! I am considering making the move there myself, do you suggest it?
Consider yourself a member of The Colonial Contingent Aussie is a great place to live, the biggest drawback is that everywhere else is so far away
Being so far away might not be such a bad thing! You don't have to deal with all of the rest of the "civilized world's" nonsense!
Unfortunately we do have to put up with the rest of the world & their nonsense. Come over for an extended stay & see what you think. The east coast is very similar to California in climate
