    Default Hello all...

    Hi there, new to the forum and ZTs as well! My name's Anth and I'm a graphic designer by day and an artist by night. I've owned some meaty V8s over the years, the last one being a 58 Plymouth with a 7.2 motor, and after a couple of years off the scene I've narrowed the choice of new car for next year down to a 260 or a Monaro. The 260 won in the end because with a family I really need four doors, and it'll give me the best of both worlds. Thought I'd pop my head in, say hello and start doing some research! cheers, Anth

    I live in Bishop Auckland, not far from Darlo at all. And you're right, it's far too cold up here
