Default New guy here from VA
Hey fellas, just wanted to say hello. I just found this site a few days ago and it seems very active. I hope to learn something from the site and maybe help out too. I'm not much of a mechanic but if rounding off bolts ever becomes popular I'm your man. I have a 94 TA with 80,000 miles I bought ten years ago when I was a senior in high school, many things have came and gone since then but I will never part with my ol TA.

Ha Ha, I don't drive it a whole lot anymore it mostly sits in the garage. When I get the motor done though I plan to ride it a lot to car shows and such. It seems to be a lot of VA people on the site.

A custom car spec'd close to the 503, 1.6 rr,guide plates, duel springs, comp R lifters, hardened pushrods, 30lb injectors, lt headers, tune and so on. I still lack a few nick nack parts to finish up, just kinda buying a little along. I plan to have it done by May.


Do any of you Virginia guys ever meet up at any annual events?

Thanks everyone for the friendly welcome!
