| Hi, just wanted to introduce myself, i signed up today.
Name is Daniel, 33 years young , curently living in Hollywood but born and raised in Sweden (!).
I hve been working on muscle cars for years but never touched a new car.
I bought my first riviera (a supercharged 96) 3 days ago and i really like it, i do have some problems tho but i think ill be allright.
See thread in Series II Engine & Transmission.
Amazing board with a LOT of info, when i bought the car the plan was to get it to run as it´s suposed to and then i thought i´d be happy.
well after that i found this board, and all of a sudden i realise that i need to do alot of fun stuff to the car.
