Welcome on board! I'd be relatively close if you would be in Europe, but I hope you'll find someone... Hopefully someone as interested in cars as you are.

There's an old poem about the Polish and the Hungarian beeing good friends and having fun and drinking wine together. And just for your info I live about 100m-s away from a museum full with old cars.

Hey Stude, jak sie macie? Dobrze? North Jersey Polish here. Love the cars. You used to look like Axl Rose dude....now you just look like a regular Jackson-White from the Ramapo mountains. Lol, only kidding. Where in Joisey are you? Wallington, Garfield or Linden? How did you embed your pics in the post?
Is calling a car "old" kind of like saying one is "handicapable"? (ack puke, puke)
We need to gather around that car and sing Stolat! May it live to be 100 years!

Hiya Skibone! I remember you from paraquad, or maybe one of those other old yahoo groups. I'm glad you found us! I think you'll see that we're a lot nicer and less creepy than those paraquad dudes who give devos a bad name. Too bad I don't live on the East Coast anymore, you're a hottie!

AB, I thought you said you were Jewish? Triassic, Jewish is my religion...My family is from Poland/Russia. There is no place called Jewland that all the Jews are from. We are from Italy, Russia, Poland, Hungary and even Ireland. Our ancestors spoke the native language of the country they were from. Yes, there is the Yiddish language, which is a bastardized combo of various European Languages plus a little Hebrew thrown in. I can be a Polish Jew, just as you can be an Irish Catholic or an Irish Protestant, right? Oh Stude...you live at Sulak Ln.? I am 10 min. south of you down K'mack Rd. I know A's very, very well. I live in the next town (New Milford). It's a small, small world, eh? I would LOVE to see that car! I too am a New York City transplant to NJ. I sometimes think about moving down to the Carolinas to get away from all this congested mess. The cost of living with a kid and a house is astronomical here.

and in polish that rhyme/diddy/toast goes like this: "polak wegier-dwa bratanki, i do szabli i do szklanki.."Yeh! That's the one! In Hungarian: "Lengyel s magyar - két jóbarát, együtt mulat s issza borát." hehe, and it's quite apparent you're not much into my 'hobby' just by the way you stated that phrase in your post, id est: (...)full with old cars[sic!](...) ;D ;D ;D if you were you'd call them older cars, classic cars, vintage, antique, and anything but old cars hahaha..it's ok though No, actually I like them - only it frustrates me that I don't know them well enough to be able to buy one (I'm into that little old VW minivan with round lamps - formerly used as ambulances in Hungary) and keep it functional. And I like any kind of old machines, not only cars. Regarding vehicles I'm rather into ships, boats, submarines - anything that swims - I love the oily smell of the ports... And I'm not at the level my sister and her boyfriend are... The solid base of their relationship is their love for cars - old, new, tunning, stereo,...

There is indeed a Mr. AB, but there's always room for friends to hang out with.

Wow Stude, what a cool car! My dad used to drive one of those when I was born. His was a metallic aqua blue.

I'm referring to the '68 cutlass, but both cars are really cool.

okay, if I ever get there, you can drive me around. My dad and brother talk cars all the time, so a little has rubbed off on me. And I like driving a lot too.

See,what did I tell you Leilia! He's da' bomb, which is American slang for awesome computer geek. Who else would know what data mining algorithims are? Is it like when the brain gets into a "rut"? ie. I can find my way to work in the morning and completely forgot how I even drove there. Wait, maybe it was all the drugs.

changed to conservative views as i aged.. Hey Stude! So if we add up all that has been said, the girl you are looking for should fulfil the following criteria: - be crazy for cars; - be at least a hobby mechanician, hobby electrician, hobby … and be able to modify cars in a heartbeat - work fine with metals, be into cutting, welding,etc. - be able to make you a custom bench so you don't break any more bones; - preferably be into workouts – or at least be there and save you whenever you still do break your bones (if she is a doc or a nurse would be fine, too); - be preferably dev or be just crazy for you (and preferably be a plain, regular wizzard in bed); - be conservative – which around my area include that she does not do anything that is regularly done by men (ie. welding, cars, workouts,...) and that you two do not do anything more serious together than collecting flowers for her mother... Not an easy case...
