Just a note to say Hi. I joined the club in 1998 when I bought a '53 Manhattan and drove it back to the Chicago area from Long Island, NY. I was active with the most popular forum at the time which was on Yahoo, I think. I kept the car for only a bit over a year and then sold it so I lost touch with the forum although I remained a member of the club. I still have hopes of getting another '53 some time but have a storage problem. Currently it would have to sit outside and that's no good for one of these gems.
