Howdy from Calgary!
Hi there! My name is Alex, and I just bought a '68 1600! It needs a few things, but it runs, needs brakes to drive. I've wanted one ever since I started becoming seriously interested in driving, and my Dad has a 67 1600 as well, Roadster family! Here's a pic of my heap:

Welcome to the addiction, though you have some experience already with your dad's. More pictures please!

Re: Howdy from Calgary!
About time you showed up Alex! Alex is modest. His father is a legendary roadster nut in these parts, and Alex is a chip off the old block. His car needs love, but it has been adopted by the right family...

Re: Howdy from Calgary!
David and other Calgary Roadster owners...if anyone is around during the week of March 14 - 21, please let me know. I am coming to Calgary to do a flooring job for my friend, and would love to get together for a social evening.

Hi Alex and Jim
A get together is a great idea - I'm out of town March 13-16 but I'm available the evening of the 17, 19 or 20th.

Jim - I am available the 17th & the 20th - maybe we could meet up somewhere central for wings and a beverage or two?
Alex - The car looks decent for sure! Did you get it locally?

I did get it locally, was sitting in the local classifieds just waiting to get snatched up! I saw it 3 hours after it was posted and thought it would have already been bought, haha.
