    New girl

    Hi all,
    I've been a member of TurboDodge and Allpar for about 5 years now, and I figured I may as well join here as well.

    My first vehicle was an '86 LeBaron, 2.2L T-I. I owned it for about 2 years and sold it to buy my current turbo mopar, my '90 Daytona Shelby, 2.5L T-I, her name is "Shebby". I'm currently working on a complete restoration of her, including a complete stock rebuild of the motor and transmission, paint and body work. It had always been a dream of mine to integrate a t-top into my car, but I think that might be a bit extreme for me at this juncture.

    A bit about me on a personal note...I'm a 26 (gonna be 27 in one week) married mom of 2, I live in Crossville, TN and I'm a produce manager. Not really interesting or exciting, but info about me nonetheless, LOL.

    No, actually that was me and my stupidness, LOL...When I got the car my oldest was 1 and didn't talk much so, she was named before he could even come close to pronouncing it, LOL.

    You know, I can never seem to pick the ripe melons Most fruits and veggies give you clues if they are nice and ripe, but Cantalope's Honeydew's and Watermelons are just a wild a$$ guess for me. Any tips? Welcome BTW

    Yes, actually. Knock on it...if it has a nice deep hollow echo, it's ripe!

    Thanks for the welcome, BTW!

    Welcome! I used to have a co-worker named Kevin Burge who lived in Crossville. He moved away 3 or 4 years ago, I think.

    Alan, it took me a minute to figure out what the heck you were talking about.

    Wow, if I read that right you are a MOM of 2 correct? Before that you said you are the TD "nut"... Does your hubbie like TD's? Is this his main drive or yours? I am always a big fan of chicks who dig cars, so you would definitely be a welcome addition to "the force" here on TM....

    Oh, and btw, Shebby is just another name for GM branded quality...

    Aw C'mon, I hadn't even thought of that I just really really love produce Besides, I'm the oldest guy here, I graduated high school in 1920 according to one informed source here...

    It would be nice if you decide to stick around, the boy/girl ratio here could always use help
