Todd Stevens, (also an 81 Coupe owner), came over from MD for the Mid Ohio Vintage Motorcycle weekend and my youngest daughter and I met up with him finally face to face. Great guy. We had a fun talk that didn't last long enough of corse but it was an excellent time all the same and great to finally meet another internet Lancia friend face to face!

I am the cripple on the left, Kim, my three year old is on my lap and Todd is sitting next to us, thanks to the woman who gave up a portion of her lunch break to take the picture for us!

Oh yea, the bike meet was pretty darn good too!.......AMA Super Bike is this weekend!

I have to say that your daughter looks pretty excited about being there, Jim. ;)

Thanks for the pic. Nice to see some faces for once. You should also put it in the Gallery under the "Lancisti Faces" album.

Is that rust I see at the leading edge of the rear wheelarch? tsk tsk :)

I was picking up some bits on the weekend for my newest toy, a little 125cc motocross style bike to ride till I pass my full bike test and ended up parking next to a pretty clean little y10, didnt get to meet the owner though.

Rediscovered the joys of what short journeys and 30 degree temperatures does to the poor Beta in the process mind - vapor lock anyone?

Ha ha, she enjoyed being at the race track with dad, but was pissed we were taking pictures of her and was addiment about not smiling for them! ha ha, it was way past her nap time, for some reason, she doesn't like having her picture taken unless we are home and just imediate family.....that's a thing she developed over the last 6 months of so

Rust? are you kidding?!! is that ALL the rust you can see? what are you man? BLIND?! ha ha ha........that mark for instance at the top of the driver wheel opening lip, well, thats a hole! and so is that smudge at the bottom front of the driver door! and bottom of rocker panels? what bottoms?! you tellin me their supposed to have bottoms?! ha ha ha, body and paint is this comming winter when I can no longer drive it due to weather, I had to get the wiring and mechanicals all good first, (only been woring on this one since last March), ......and of corse, that's not all totallly done by any means yet either!......nor will it ever be, it never is with old cars! LOL


I guess I myself need to look around here more for things like the owner photo section you mentione DJ, but being on dialup, looking at pictures is very time consuming and vidieos are forbidden! so I tend to stay away from those areas and stick to text stuff. Some day I'll grow up and spring the extra $35 a month for wireless, (the only thing other than dialup available where I live), someday! ha ha
