Welcome aironly. We're getting a lot of bolters from BC, but that's a good thing. So, what kind of shape is the old girl in? Do you have any type of plan for how you will restore it? Just ask all the questions you need answered. If you browse around the site, you will see where the questions need to be posted. Don't be shy!
