Default New guy joining

I just bought a 2001 SS convertible. I haven't even picked it up yet. I think its bone stock. All black car.

I have been a Grand National owner for the last several years and its time to try something new.

Are there any guys from Ottawa on here? I was wondering where to get frame connectors put on, preferably local.

Sounds good. I would probably plan to do it in the Spring but I will definitely contact you when I get to that point, also I do not technically own the car quite yet, soon, soon.

Your car looks like mine but I have the 10 spoke wheels. I checked out one of your photos. Its obvious you are in Montreal with those spiral stair cases in the background. I am going to guess somewhere near l'Acadie. I was born in Montreal.

I have taken my previous car to the Shannonville track. Does St.Eustache have a road course? I have yet to really turn a hard corner in mine, it snowed too early.
