new kid here.

Post by millsaps »

i am new to the forum i recently saw my first roadster in person. it was a low window 1600 that i spotted at an ice cream parlor. i did a full lap of a roundabout to stop in an check the car out. i instantly fell in love with these cars. i own a hardbody king cab and an 85 300zx turbo and the roadster has always been a dream to have and now im trying to finish my z31 and the truck so i can afford a roadster.

Welcome to the forum, hopefully one day you can own a Roadster! :D

I hope I look as good as your friend when I drive my roadster, being 5,9 and 220lbs doesn't help me at all. :oops:

P.S It looks like he's enjoying the ride more than you! :lol:

My cousin may be selling a 66 I used to own in New Jersey, a few hours from you. I'll see if he decided and have him post here.
If you bring your friend, plan on either top down or buy a 68-70 :D
