Welcome. TAs are beautiful cars.

Welcome from another Chicago area member.  :clapping:  I also got a 4 speed T/A at age 16, mine's FE5 and I sometimes regret I never did sell it.....it's been in a bogged down restoration for longer than I care to admit, but a year ago I retrieved it from the do-nothing shop it was in and moved it to a very good shop here in IL.  After a years worth of their bills, my car is finally shiny and red again!  And I'm about to pick up the phone and call that Peter Francis whatever his name is shyster bankruptcy attorney who advertises on the local TV stations here all the time as my once fat piggy bank is about empty!  :eek4: :banghead:  At any rate, hopefully I'll win the lottery or something and be able to afford to put the car back together someday.
Couple local events coming up.  The Chicagoland Mopar Connection swap meet at Larry Roesch Chrysler was rescheduled to March 23, the WPC club car show and swap is at the same location April 27 I think is the date, and the CMC spring Mopar Madness show is May 18th.  Hope you can make it to one or all these events and meet some of us local Mopar types!   :wave:

I think it's 8am gates open but maybe 9.  I live not too far from Elmhurst but have trouble dragging my butt out of bed on a Sunday morning so I probably won't get there until 9:30ish.
