Yay! New SPL owner. Best xmas ever!
Hello Ladies and Gents, My name is Tuan Nguyen and I picked up "Pinky" a 1969 roadster 1600 yesterday. I am absolutely excited and filled with joy. I found 311s.org and there are so many resources here. I look forward to learning from everyone here and maybe contribute a few ideas as well.

That is a nice Christmas present! Rust free makes life so much easier as well. Enjoy.

Welcome Tuan,
Everyone will help you when the can and have a nice time with your 311.
Its a good hard car, so I can see, a new paint job and it looks great.
I see that a pair of window washers are missing?

Horsepower is how hard you hit the wall,torque is how far you take the wall with you.

Cool. She needs a few more things to be on the streets but I'll surely go when she's up and going. =)Linda wrote:Bring your car to the free weekly SuperCar Sunday car show 7-10 in Woodland Hills and you can meet the local owners.

There are usually some Roadsters there. I'll be there this week for sure. Come by even without the car. (I don't mean you have to walk, of course.
