New guy from South Florida
« on: February 01, 2012 - 12:02:57 AM »
What's up, fellas.  Been around cars my whole life. I had several muscle cars back in the 80's, then moved  on to hot rods and  customs. I want to get back to my roots, and I want to do it with a Mopar A body. Looking around for a good  candidate right now, and joined this site for ya'll's wealth of information. Thanks for having me!

I'm settling on my new house in Boca Raton at the end of this month (February).  Should be moving in mid March.

Anyone near West Boca Falls?  The community is next to West Boca High School.

I am in West Palm.  I know exactly where you.  I looked there and ran.  I found it to be a very unfriendly place for anyone who had an old car.  I hope you have a better experience.

Let's hope so.  The neighbor 2 doors down has an old Willys and the neighbor a few houses the other way has dirt bikes.  I'm keeping my fingers crossed.  Thanks

Where are you?

Are you in a gated Boca community or on the outskirts which is considered Palm Beach County Unicorporated?

Thanks for the welcome, fellas. I am actually in Pompano Beach, and I am quite happy here. The friends I have made are all into cars, so I don't see why its a bad place to live car wise. I will be sure to be at that all Mopar car show coming up  in March, and I am looking forward to learning from you guys. Oh, and finding that late 60's Barracuda that I keep losing sleep over!  :bigsmile:
