Your in my old neck of woods! Sold my house in Berwick, ME two years ago to move closer to my grandparents that are 90 years old. My Dad passed away and it was too hard keeping an eye on them 900 miles away. I still consider Maine/NH "home" and will eventually move back. I loved my Boss and really hated selling it but ... one of those things. I may build another but it would be hard to build another like I had. It was NASTY! Enjoy your new ride too!

Edit below:
I only posted about tire pressure because the car is new to you and you are immediately replacing tires. 35 psi will make for a slick (not in a good way) ride.

Running Vredestein front/rear 235/45 ZR17 and 315/35 ZR17 I have pressure set at 28# front/rear. I figured a little stickier with less pressure. Does that sound about right? I think the tire wear is just me not having any self control and I was "feeling" the car out being new to me. I hope the new set (waiting for lead hammer to arrive) when I get them installed will last a little longer ... got to stay off the peddle a little!
