New Member from Washington State

I’m Greg, I’m a lifelong car enthusiast making my home in Eastern Washington State. I’ve owned and driven many years, makes, and models of vehicles. My current projects include my 1965 Ford Galaxie Convertible and my 1978 Ford F150. My daily driver is my 2006 Dodge Cummins 4X4.
In the past couple years I’ve been searching for a vintage “road car” that retains a bit of the “coolness factor” from my generation(I’m 41). This search has put vehicles in my driveway including a 1987 Tbird turbo coupe, a 1977 Cadillac Sedan Deville, and a 1979 Cadillac Seville. For one reason or another all of these vehicles wound up being passed on down the road.
While I have yet to own one of these, I’m pretty excited about these Beautiful Oldsmobiles; hoping to make acquaintances and learn more about these great old cars. I am a car enthusiast and as much as I enjoy owning and driving these cars, I enjoy learning their history of manufacturing and production.
I have trolled the forums enough to know the people make it great; you all have a GREAT group of enthousiasts frequenting this sight and I’m looking forward to being a part of it!

Welcome to the site! I'm South, Southwest of you a ways but have been to Eastern Washington in the past. What I remember is the rust free old iron you've got there from the high desert environment. You should have lots of vintage project cars to choose from if you start poking around the countryside. Keep us posted, and if you find something your interested in post any questions you might have about the car.

Howdy!
I'm on the other side of the hump, and haven't been on this forum too long, but am feeling pretty comfortable here.
Welcome from the wet side.
