I just helped my wife's co-worker put seatbelts in his Falcon.  He's stoked that he can put his little one's car seat in now.  I might have to get your disc setup so he can get working brakes on that thing now. 

Congrats on the new ride!

Congrats on the ride.

As the owner of a classic car get ready for the following:
- always having a conversation at a gas station - even if you don't want it
- dealing with other drivers ignorant to your classic car
- dumb questions with Ducati's?  Wait!!!  (Do you have airbags?) [laugh]
- feeling the urge to go to classic car shows, even though you know they're a drag.

Sorry - had to be a ball-buster for a minute 8)

You will make every single ride in it an event.

You can be proud of your place in the world when surrounded by Minivans and SUV's [thumbsup]

...and just remember, it can all be done with patience, time and money.

Congrats!
