No I'm on the west side of Augusta. Columbia is a little over an hour from me. Typically there aren't any serious Pro-Touring people in my area since I live in the "sticks" Most people I run across think my 68 is cool but that I'm sacriligious for modernizing it with fuel injection, 6 spd, disc brakes, etc. I just tell them in response that I love driving my car and want to enjoy it to it's fullest potential. (I usually still get a funny look but I don't care)

Welcome young gun!

Car looks great!

Did you do these mods yourself? Have a dad that gave you good guidance? How'd you get bit by the PT/Car bug?
