Default Moving to Jacksonville

I will be moving to Jacksonville once my home sells here in NC. I look forward to making some new friends with fellow Camaro/F-body owners. Don't know anyone but my family down there. I did a search and found River City F-Body Club, but I can't post on their forum unless I'm a member? Look forward to hearing from you!

We are still knee deep in the permit process to get the addition on the shop.

To the OP, what part of town are you going to be staying in?

Welcome to the First Coast of Florida!

Welcome, we have a lot of Rice here in JAx, but if you get with Rick/EuroSpec and the gang on Saturday nights at the shop the only way you'll have to deal with rice is if you go eat chinese food or something.

I did register, but it won't let me leave posts, and the forum screen had a shorter list of thread topics- it was like I was locked out of even viewing half? Hope I explained that right I will try posting again today. Thanks!

-----PS No luck, tried again and it says I'm not authorized? I am logged in and can edit my profile though?????

Thank you for my pre-welcome! That means a lot to me.

Our club here is weak at best, unfortunately. Now are there any jobs? Looking for part time work, because of my disability. Don't worry, I can still turn a wrench better than most I did a lot of work on my car.
