Hi' been on the site for some time ,but never posted. Been working on a 72' Olds that was supposed to be a quick paintjob and lets get driving.
Well i'm sure at least some of you guys have run into the...."while i'm here I might as well fix" logic. So a quickie turns into a ..long term relationship...!

 

welcome. Where in NY are you?

 

Welcome to the site jmb442, from a displaced NY'er.
Best of luck with your project!

 

Welcome.

 

Thanks for the Welcome...I'm in upstate NY near New Paltz.

 

Upstate ??....Wow, I must be in Canada

Welcome

 

Thats Hilarious!!...I work in nyc and when they hear New Paltz...they
think I'm in Canada..

 

Yea, I'm sure.

Welcome to CO from another New Yorker!

 

It may as well be....New Paltz is not very close to Manhattan. Even if you take the train, that's gotta be 3 hours round-trip. Nevermind that drive, daily(?); it would kill most mortal man

 

Thanks for the Welcome ...and that is a fine lookin Supreme.

 

Greetings neighbor, I'm in the Modena area just south of you. I have a 68 442 that I just purchased as a project car.

 

we should hook up sometime and yap. 845-706-8803 and my name is Joland.

 

Thanks! I look forward to seeing pics of your progress too. What color will it be?

 

It was a tough choice, but finally settled on red. Then came the process of getting the right shade......

 

Looking Good Welcome!!!!

 

Thanks! I have made progress since this picture...but i dont think this
is the thread to start loading with pictures..

 

Welcome to the forum from a Canadian (oddly enough north of NY State).

 

Welcome from Texas.
We call those the MAW's!

 

Yeah, and I must be somewhere in the midwest

 

Welcome! I have always wondered why they call it Upstate NY when my home in Conklin just south of Binghamton is 7 Miles from the PA border! Most people from NYC have never been west of the Hudson river. Thats ok just more room for me! Good luck on the project.

 

Welcome. Post up some pics of your progress. I'm from NY also. I've got to see if there's any way to save this one or start again.

 

buddy I here you on the job. I was wondering is there still street racing in new York with minimal problems or safety issues with people? I love one on one racing! Chicago area is a pain now and 41 or Byron is the place to go to.

 

Wow!...there really is a Canada.

 

Thanks for the Welcome!.... the term upstate is somewhat confusing? depending what part of NY you live in ...upstate starts ???? and to those who live outside of NY...they may not even have heard of "upstate". Now i'm not sure where I live.......

 

Holy @#%&...I'd be in tears......Now what??

 

You know, just when you think you've seen everything...a few weeks ago I saw a group of kids on dirtbikes and atv's going uptown from around 92nd street on Broadway!...dirtbikes and ATV's!...I've been passed by "the fast and the furious" looking cars on the Westside Highway ,so anything is possible. I'm not aware of any "scene" like the old Connecting Highway was....but that doesn't mean anything. I'm sure some other NewYorkers on this forum know a lot more about any street racing going on ..than I do.
