Hello Nor Cal

Hello All,

Just wanted to stop by and introduce myself to my fellow Califorians. I just signed on a few days ago after my Dad and I decided to rebuild his 1983 Mechman MSE #97. I have been posting on the www.earlythirdgen.com board about the rebuild and what nots for a couple of days now if anyone is interested in our bird. Well, hope to chat later.


Daniel R.

Kool man, that's a pretty unique and rare car. A good candidate for restoration. Best of times to you! Where about in Nor-Cal are you?

Re: Hello Nor Cal

What part of California?

Some unique badging and decals on that car and I always liked the Mecham style spoilers.

Welcome aboard and check out the stickies at the top.

Re: Hello Nor Cal

Thanks again guys,

I'm from Merced. Yeah, the car has been sitting on the side of the house for the last 8 years just rotting away. My dad traded my 87 Camaro z28 and 300 bucks for it when I was in the Army. I was kinda pissed when I found out that my car was gone, but 8 years later I am thanking him for it! I wrecked my dad's old 1983 Trans Am with a 305 H.O. so I gues we are even.


On another note I guess there used to be another Mecham in town but it got sent to the crusher about a year ago.

Re: Hello Nor Cal

89Slidin - Any particular reason why you brought back a post from 1 year ago and only posted "hello" ??

I see your one and only other post is in the classifieds to sell your car a few days ago, NICE!
