    Hi guys, I guess it's time to check in and be a real member of this form. I'm just another old car nut. I got my 68 Ford country sedan,a few years ago.
    I wasn't looking for a new project, but it was to straight, to clean and ran to well to pass up. Did I also say to cheap. Any way I've had a good time driving the wheels off it.The only major problem with this wagon is the power rear window is up and dead, can't use the rear gate until I can get the window working.
    I seem to be dragging this out far ,so I'll just say I'm happy to be a part of this group.

    .............Jack

    :Welcome: Jack, glad to have you on the site. You'll have to get some pictures up of that near perfect car. The others will be around soon, maybe they'll have a few suggestions for your back window. Hope you enjoy the forum.:)

    Welcome aboard Jack. Those 68s were fine wagons, and obviously, yours sounds like it still is! Glad you came and signed up.:thumbs2:

    If you love Jazz Festivals, Whidby Island and Port Angeles, are the places to go. Hands down. They even get Aurora Borealis in late July. What a site! We get them here too.:bowdown:

    I'm a dyed-in-the-wool jazz fan. Brubeck is like number 1 or 2. I was a member of the HotJazz club in Vancouver, and we went to all kinds of Jazz fests along the wet coast. We even had our own member gals doing the dance routines on stage. Fun stuff. Good times, and I was single back then. yummy memories. :evilsmile: :oops:

    My dad played piano with some of the postwar greats, including Oscar Peterson, at the USO's during the war. Always had a piano in the house.
