Thanks for the welcome!

I will be using this site a lot over the next few months.

I am new to Firebirds/TAs but if anyone needs to know about 55-57 Chevys I have a pretty good handle on those. :)

Read the hotties thread last night that was a great laugh. :-*

I am adding some updated TA photos, check them out. Primer YEAH!!!!!!!

Welcome to the Forum everyone.  Nice to have you here.  Please let us know how we can help out.  Also, don't mind the people begging for photos... it happens alot around here.  Oh, and ILLINI 79 TA, ... the first step to a cure is admitting you have a problem with too many TA's.  Maybe we can help..... or actually we might end up feeding that problem since we are all infected with the same thing.

And we should mention that Jeff just relocated to southern Indiana from Iowa in hopes of doing just that.  He moved to the corner of the state closest to Illinois and Kentucky with the idea that his central locatiion would facilitate the endless collecting of TAs.  The only problem he hasn't figured out yet is how to get them across the river -- they're too heavy to throw, they get stuck in bottom mud if he tries to drive them across, and they won't float. :-\ :D :D

Welcome to 78TA.com!  Post us up some pics of your current ride! :) :)

I am from Bloomington, IN originally only been in FL for about a year and a half.
I know one reason why those cars won't float most have rust holes you could throw a cat through.
Good news there are quite a few cars still hiding around that area though.

So what's your take on Bob Knight tossing in the towel so suddenly? :-\

Knight has said he would quit/retire before. He does most everything suddenly and in the moment.
Someone probably looked at him funny and he got pissed off.
Who knows, I don't really follow him that much but it is no surprize to me. His career is littered with stuff like this.
Same old song and dance.

 ;DHello there. Before I get post happy, I wanted to ask if Formula owners are welcome here? I dont see why not but you never know.
I am from vernal Utah and have a 79' Formula 403, It has been in the family for 13 years. I am getting ready to restore it and will need all the help I can get. I am a geologist for the oil field and also enjoy Jeeping, landscape painting, snowmobiling and the great outdoors. This pic is the only one I have handy. Nice to meet you all. Troy.
