newbie from switzerland... ('71 RR)

Post by gionni » Sun Jan 21, 2007 11:37 am

hi all

i'm gionni and i am italian...but i live in switzerland. i'm new here..and i am a big mopar-enthusiast since i was a little kid! :wink:

(sorry for my bad english...a can't write good english!) :D

i drive a tawny-gold '71 road runner 340 HP with 727-AT, AC, power steering, power disc-brakes, bench, column shift...and complete #maching! (absolutly no rust / california-car / 1 of 1'243)

Image

actually, i restore the body (new paintjob, skratches...) and makes a few of modifications. my future project is to make a pro-tourer with my RR!
here a few mod's for this year:

- new paintjob incl. engine-compartment
- changing some engine-parts and new gaskets
- new engine-paintjob and a few of billet-parts
- TTI-headers and new magnaflow 4"-tips
- suspension lowering
- new sport-seats (leather black)
- custom-console with hi-fi and autometers
- budnik steering-wheel
- and other...

next year coming new rims (19" / 20")! :D

this are actually pictures:

Welcome to the Nest! Great car, I LOVE seeing all this American iron standing out proudly on the roads overseas. Your English is really good! Far better than I could hope to write in your language! FWIW, my kinfolk came from the Bern, Switzerland area. "Anliker" is a Swiss name.

Again, welcome! :beer:

The stance on that is perfect.....I would go that low but my driveway would rip up my k-frame if I did.

Come siete, il miei padre e madre sono venuto in america e sono stato sopportato alcuni lepidotteri più successivamente. La prima lingua che ho imparato era siciliana. Benvenuto in America, anche se è su un calcolatore. Gradisco il vostro RR, il miei 71 GTX sono inoltre oro di tawny GY9.

Man...I totally remember when this first happened to me....

here is what to do....find any post that you have a reply in....at the
bottom of all of your messages there will be a profile button....click it...
After your profile screen comes up....click then on the highlighted words
'User Attachment Control Panel'.....Once you are in..there you
should easily be able to delete any of your excess pictures...

take care scott
