Re: New guy in town

Hi Brian - welcome!  You'll find a lot of great, helpful people here.  I've learned a ton about our cars from hese guys.  Rusty cowl- common, unfortunately.  Sprayed in foam in cowl - not so common - LOL.  What part of the country are you in - and where is the car from?  I'm in WI - aka - the rust belt.  My car came from Florida, though.
