I've been skulking around on here for a long while... dreaming, pondering, planning, admiring, etc...

Always wanted a 67-72. A 71 swb, in particular. (my wife is a 71 model, so 71's have a little significance) A few weeks ago, I found it - it just happened to be sitting 2 miles from my house. It was like it had sunbeams directing me to it, with faint "halleluia" background music. LOL. Seriously, I wouldn't have bought it if it weren't a 71. Just couldn't pass it up.

So, now I've cleared out some valuable garage space and I'm ready to tear in to it. Like 99.86% of you, money will be tight for a while, so it will likely be a looooong term build. But at least now I have something to tinker with.

I welcome all of you to my life.
