HI Nikki. Its great to have you on board - were a pretty friendly bunch and one of us is a bit of a Diesel fan - you'll have to guess who that is. I Like your plans for the car and I look forward to hearing about your progress. Add some airbags to the suspension and youll get adjustable ride height and a really smooth ride.

I see you've put a for sale ad in our for sale section - quite a few people see the ads as the post views show so good luck with the sale.
