Hello folks. G'day Basil.
I've been a member of this forum since 2003 when I bought my first LBC, a 1978 TR7. This forum got me through that rebuild, my '73 MGB, my 74.5 MGBGT, and my '64 MGB as well. I moved on to restoring C3 Corvettes for a while and lost touch. I retired and moved from Ontario to New Brunswick in May '21, with my Wife of 39 years and loving it. I've recently purchased a 1980 TR7 because I was bored and can only build so many rooms in our house. I just changed the head gasket and am waiting on some carburetor rebuild parts. It's fun getting back into these British wonders.
I made many many friends on this site over the years but alas, a lot of them have passed on over the years. Tony Barnhill was a great help for parts as well as insight, only to mention one. I don't see many familiar names here but hopefully the mood is the same.
Thanks.

welcome back! Had to look up Kierstedville - pretty part of the world!
 
Welcome back! Still some of the old regulars; several Wedge owners here, so I'm sure you'll have plenty to chat about.

:cheers:

I was wondering what ever became of you! You've been a member since almost the beginning.
Good to see you back and that's a great looking TR7 you picked up!
This is new software for the forum since you were last on. Similar to what you're used to but there are some differences. Let me know if you have any questions.

PS; Tony, in case you were not around at the time, unfortunately passed away in an unfortunate traffic accident back in (I think) 2010.
 
Thanks Basil. Yes, I was still active here when Tony passed. I still have contact with Jaybird from time to time though.. I love the software. Very easy to use.
The TR7 will be a fun project. Got sick of looking at our 2018 Stingray in the garage and not being able to tinker. :smile:
