Newb from Norcal/Cencal

Post by dsp979 »

Hello forum,

I may be a newbie here, but I've already met a few people on here.

I met Ray (wiqdtoy) down in Long Beach at the JCCS, the manong with the Red F20 powered Starlet, and the owners of the orange? corolla and 2tg powered celica at the SF HIN.

I've always like the 1st gen celicas, especially the 71-72 for their taillights. That being said, I will be searching for a running project car once I'm done fixing up the IS.

Here's hoping this is more stable than the classic-celica forum.

wussup Ryan!

glad you're finally on here!

we will certainly do our best to keep this Forum up and running. it's pretty much one of the very few sources for info and parts/car networking we have.

just keep an eye out on our classified section. you just might find the car you're looking for...

Thanks guys!

I will start a build thread once i get the title to the car. =(

exodus and russnuck:

I meant to say central coast. I lived in Santa Cruz for 2 years, then Monterey for almost 7 years. I'm now back in the SF East Bay.

And russnuck, there's a big Datsun 510 chapter HQ'ed in the Santa Cruz Mountains. =)
