Newbie hellos

Hiya everybody,

I've been reading this board for a few weeks, and finally registered.

My "Black Betty" starts rolling down the assembly line tomorrow! I'm very excited.

I'll want to do some mods to it, a little at a time here and there. Mostly I've been hunting for tough looking wheels. Some minor performance mods, a little interior dress-up, probably some louvres. We'll see. I figured I'd get it frst, then see what it feels like and what it feels like it needs. Though I'm thinking the first thing it will need is a radar detector!

Anyway, just dropping a hello from northern Michigander transplanted to Houston.

I'll post pics, of course, the day she arrives!

Thanks all.

Actually window tinting is one of the early mods I intend on doing. I'd already jotted down Huper Optic as one to check on. Also I like the look of louvres; a bit retro, a bit tough, would look slick on a black car, and definately will keep the sun out of the rear window.

I'll check on the paint protector, thanks!

I don't know how you do it in Canada. When I lived in Michigan I'd have never even thought about getting a car like this. Those winters are brutal with all the sand and salt, and I can't afford two cars.

I have noticed some fireworks already, and noticed that you are usually lighting the fuse ExCon!

I was initially bummed that I had to wait so long to order mine, then had to wait so much longer to get it. But, now I'm glad it did take so long. Since mine doesn't start down the assembly line until tomorrow it should have a good gas tank, non-skipping stereo, growl-less tranny, pop-less front end, and iron-shaving-less paint.

Man I can't wait!
