Default Introduction

Just want to introduce myself. Iv'e owned a 2003 VP for a year now. Always liked Jags. Been retired for 20 months so I figured it was time. I love this Jag. It is near mint condition, well taken care of by the original owner. Looked for long time till I found this one at Kempthorne in Canton, Ohio. I have owned approx. 140 cars thru my life and I have to say this is one of my favorites. I have been visiting this sight for a year and thought it was time to join. Gotten a lot of excellent info. I have replaced all the shocks and antisway bar bushings(myself,like to do my own wrenching when I can). Being a power plant mech. for 36 years has helped. Anyway, looking foward to contribute when and if I can.
Thanks,
Dave

First, thanks for the welcome. Been thinking about joining for long time. I always try to keep my cars in top shape (and my wife's car too).

Other than the Jag I own a 2002 Thunderbird, thunderbird blue and a Olds Bravada. Wife drive SRX.

As for all the cars, it just started as a hobby and a good paying job with a little too much time on my hands after a divorce in 1975. I have to say though I have had some pretty neat cars. My first new one a 68 Camaro SS. A few others were 65 Pontiac 2plus2, 76 lipstick red T Bird (always loved the T birds had a few of those 66, 68,73,76. 79 Trans Am. just a few. TOO MANY!lol
