Default Hello from Ohio

Hello everyone,
My name is Ken from Youngstown, Ohio. I just purchased my 1st Roaster. It is an older Classic Roadsters LTD classic 427, built in 1992, 351w engine. I have only had it a few weeks, after working out some bugs, she is running great and one hell of a lot of fun to drive.
Since I have no paperwork history, not even the assembly manual, I am learning on the fly. I am sure I will need some help here and there. I have lurked around this forum for a couple days, and looks like some good ole boys here!
Ken

Thanks!
Besides the fun of driving it, I get a kick out of the attention I get. I really get a kick out of the people who don't know what it is... I have been asked"Is that a Vette?" "Is the a Mustang?", " is that the James Bond car?" lol, and of course "is it real?"

Ken

When you have some specific questions, Double Venom is a good source. He's helped me several times and his advise has always been right on the money.

It's worth repeating: "Welcome to the madness!"

I'm close enough to you that our paths may cross, especially if you show up at Riverfront in Cuyahoga Falls on a Monday night or Bellacino's in Stow on Thursday.

You might also check the Lake Snakes website and/or Facebook page. Most of the members seem to be on Cleveland's west side, but on occasion they do venture into the wilds of northeastern Ohio.

Congratulations Ken,

I am a couple of hours South of you in Columbus. The Ohio Cobra Club has some active cruises coming up. Feel free to message me if you desire to make the drive South.

Thanks Phill,
Being that my car is an older build, I am one by one, tweeking, replacing or updating parts so I can be certain of reliability, once all the bugs are worked out, I may take you up on that.
Ken
