Hi everyone!
I'm Paulie from Lynnwood Washington, and am soon to be the proud owner of a 97 Contour (I pick her up on Tuesday or Wensday from my dad). I'll post her 'stats' when I actually meet her!
The first thing I do when I get a 'new' car is look for the community online as I've always found that fellow owners are the BEST sources of information - and the most honest. Before owning this car, I had (until last week) an 88 Sprint (a three banger that though she was a V8) who after 5 years and over 50K finally decided that it was time to move on (the guy who bought her is going to drop a new motor into her) and before that, I had a 69.5 Maverick who I was resto Moding - as I mentioned, the on line communities are the best sources of info - I can't count the amount of money I saved and knowlege I gained when working on "Alice" - VERY few 'mechs' treid to sell ME muffler bearings or blinker fluid because I always asked my freinds FIRST).
I'll probably 'lurk' untill I actually get my car home, but I hope you guys will help me keep my new baby happy for many years to come!
Paulie
