Hello from the High Desert of Palmdale, CA

Post by somepriests »

I just got around to registering on this website, and from what I have seen, I am glad this resource is available. I purchased a 1970 1600 Roadster from a gentleman in the City of Industry (CA), and with some tweaks, the car runs like a Swiss watch. I didn't know anything about Roadsters until 2011, but I have to say I am hooked. Thankfully, so is my wife. She thinks it is cute, which is what I am sure most of you guys have heard from time to time. Glad to meet you all.
