Just wanted to say Hello and thanks (already). :newb:
I have already gathered a lot of information using the search feature. This seems like a very knowledgeable and friendly group.
I recently picked up a '72 Scamp, /6, 36K original miles. A real nice cruiser. I wanted something I could drive without thinking too much about. My only other build was a '57 Dodge D100 truck, and although I love it, I pamper it too much and it doesn't get driven as much as it should (http://sites.google.com/site/steves57dodge/).
I have gone through the brakes, changed the soft brake lines, and done an oil change. I live in a rural area, so no city driving and will therefore leave the drum brakes for now. I plan on driving it once or twice a week to work and just enjoy the car. The only immediate changes I have planned are changing the front seat belts to the retractible type. Long term plans....who knows.
Looking forward to being a member,
Stephen
