Ahhhh, Ant, hello! Glad you got on here bud! My laptop can't deal with Photobucket for some odd reason, but when I hit the office tomorrow I'll use my functioning Mac to put up some pics of you and your past motor. In the meantime RR folk, this is Ant's ride... (shamelessly stolen from Butterz). Ant is 'good people' through and through. I've known him for a long time and can honestly say he's tip top! He's knowledgeable, he's a good laugh and he makes a good brew! Welcome to RR bud, you'll love it here. Chris

Hello Ant welcome aboard the good ship retro. I know what you mean about spell checker,for me it really is a Life saver as I am severely dyslexic and its only recently through this site that I have had the courage to start writing things like this.

Steal away Chris Welcome to the board Ant! I apologise I didn't introduce myself at A52 on the weekend, was probably too busy drooling at your pop

Faster. Faster. Until the thrill of speed overcomes the fear of death.

Hi Ant and welcome to Retro Rides. It's a cool place and you'll rather like it here.
You Pop is stunnng, simply stunning! Thanks for bringing it along on Saturday, there was a lot of wood for it in the Area 52 yard and rightly so.
Now that you've become a regular fixture at the unit I've taken the liberty of booking you & the Pop a place on the Area 52 stand at the Gathering. It's compulsory and you have no say in it, you ARE going to be there so that the rest of the guys from here can enjoy the awesomeness of your motor.
Hope to see you back at the unit very soon, you're always welcome.

Good to meet you over at Area52 on Saturday Ant,thats one sweet Pop you've got there & i did smile when we both left 52 & you hooned it away as the v8 sounded oh so sweet as you opened her up & the huge rear tyres momentarily lost traction! See you over there this Saturday if you decide to make another visit...... Tim.. ;D
