Default New Old guy

My name is Ron and I live in Illinois.

Back in the mid 60's to mid 70's I was a Lincoln Mercury mechanic for a local dealer. I've worked on cars my whole life and am always willing to help others if it's possible.

Since 1993 I have worked exclusively on classic and antique cars so now i'm out of touch with the more modern high tech stuff. I'm always looking to learn just the same.

I posted a help in the Escape board and will browse around to see what things are like.

Nice to meet you all
Ron

Hey Ron. I guess that just makes you a mechanic on OLD cars then. Enjoy the site and pop in if you have anything to add to answers. Also new guy buys. My drink of choice is in the attachment. I will be waiting.[sm=exactly.gif]
