Greetings,

I'm new to this forum and in the process of getting another GT6. I had a '68 in the late eighties that I had to let go and also a '64 spitfire that was my first car back in 1979.

I'm coming off a period of about five years of motorcycle restoration and customizing; specifically cafe and sportbike mods on honda sohc4's from teh early 70's Looking to get back into restoring another GT6. I still have the rebuilt engine from the '68 in storage, I'm hoping to use it as a donor engine for a new project that already has an engine, or, build another six around it.

cheers,

Hymodyne (Hym)

Welcome Hym!

Always good to have another east-coaster on board.
We have a fair number of members from MD.

I also share your interest in cafe bikes. I own a Honda Ascot thumper with rear-sets and clip ons. I *still* want to cruise to the Ace Cafe. grin

But my main interest (these days) is Brit-cars and old airplanes.

If you want to see some great bikes and cars, you should come to our New Hamphsire VRG vintage event in the Spring. Great stuff!

~HERE~ is a link to this years '09 event (and check out the videos for some good GT6 action).

And here is ~Another Link~ to our '08 NH event (with more bike shots).
