June 7, 201016 yr CLUB MEMBER comment_134187 Nice to have you on board. If you want to change your profile name you will have to drop me a pm with what you want it to be. If you join up you can get a spangly new project thread and you will be covered by the clubs event insurance to display at billing.Just make sure that if joining is your aim just follow the instructions clearly and all will be good! Welcome to the site. Be good to see the car! Report
