Hello everyone. My name is Rick, and I live in Jonesburg, MO. I just picked up an 89 Lincoln Town Car on Saturday evening. Tomorrow I should be driving it after it gets inspected and licensed (although it's leaking oil from somewhere, which I'll be looking into later). I've never had a Lincoln before, but I'm pretty impressed with it already. Even the clock next to the speedometer works!!! 
Not sure what else to say. I'm 26 years old, married with 3 kids and one on the way. The kids are 6 yrs, 4 yrs, and 6 mo old (the baby is roughly 3 to 3-1/2 months along).
I'm also a big "auto-holic", as I have dubbed myself. LOL I have 4 other cars, 2 of which I'm going to be working on this summer. The 2 I'm speaking of are a '62 Ranchero that I got from my Grandfather when I was 15 and got my permit. It was my 1st car. I drove it up until a few months before I left for the Marine Corps in January 1998. While I was out of state for 4 years, it sat and parts were stolen off of it, so I'm now in the progress of getting parts for it again, along with ALOT of aftermarket items.
I also have a 72 Ford Gran Torino Sport with a 351C-4bbl and automatic. I'm going to be getting it running here within the next week or so (hopefully). I plan on doing a restoration on it over time.
On a final note, if anyone needs a clutch rebuilt (for a 5-speed conversion or anything else), please let me know. My Grandfather owns a clutch factory here, and I'd be happy to help you get what you need at as much of a discounted rate as I can (he does high-performance clutches for some applications as well). (FYI: If you're close enough to me that you want the flywheel resurfaced, you can drop it off and have it done as well. He also sells SOME pilot bearings, throwout bearings, and clutch alignment tools.)
I think I've pretty much covered everything about me. Any questions?
