I didn't see an official introduction sticky thread for new folks... so I'll lean in and say hello.
First month of ownership of a '73 tii... I grew up in an agave '72, oh the feelings - but this is my first time allowed in the front seat! I met a great group of local Florida CCA folks at coffee Saturday morning; the friendly interest in my new ride was wonderful.
Started my punchlist! Learning... plan to drive more than polish so I'm not too concerned that I need a round washfluid jug or missing a test port cap although no part number seems to exist. I just read the FAQ article about my blue coil with the external resistor regarding how my pertronix might get fried, that sounds like it makes the list to determine if I'm bypassed first. For now I'll hunt for a headlight relay DIY article since it feels like I'm currently illuminating the road with a Zippo - seems like I have to learn FAQ search methodology a bit. I haven't found the holy grail post with all the "good" DIYs centralized, or a "getting started" thread of what to look for - maybe a buyers guide will suffice.
Glad to be here and hope to find some answers... or at least learn enough to generate some good questions. Maybe I'll just fill 'er up, head to The Vintage, and see how it goes over 700 miles - adventure feels lost these days. Besides, I've read 2/3rds of "Ran When Parked" and just made the acquaintance of Mr. Mike Self. I feel like I'm set...
Best,
Jeff
