Hi everyone, managed to log in with my new account!
I don't have a spider yet, but always loved them and have recently started looking for one - and came across your site. I'ved started reading your helpful posts and am looking forward to learning and participating as soon as i find one. I've come across a couple of 1981s and 1982s but need to do a bit more research... Great atmosphere among your members!

Re: Hi from Ottawa, Canada
Welcome from the left coast, Adham. Don't be afraid to look south for a car. While there's some paperwork involved getting one across the border, it's not too bad - particularly if the car is in good shape. You will probably be more likely to find a southern car with fewer rust problems than a northern example.

Re: Hi from Ottawa, Canada
Thanks everyone for the warm welcome, and the advice.
How do we get to see pictures of all the nice projects members have already finished, Peter included, and pics of those in various stages of the process ...?
Regards,
Adham

Re: Hi from Ottawa, Canada
Adham - If you want to see all the projects and completed cars, you're going to have a busy time of it. There's no central place you can find them all, but if you divide your time equally between searching for your car and surfing this site, by springtime you should be almost finished
