Welcome Brian!  Couldn't you have posted this last Friday for more Irish impact???   :laughing7:

I have what appears to be a twin of your car in the Battle Creek area.  Hope we can get together sometime!

Wow!  Very nice GS.  Are all the convertibles red?
I'm in Defiance, Ohio.  As Chuck suggests we should get together.  I also have one of those red verts, it is currently spread out over two garages. 
Welcome to the clubhouse and our proactive GS support group.  We don't have a date set yet but we will be having another Northwest Ohio GS/Skylark/Special in Sept, stay tuned in here.

Brian, Welcome to the group.  Nice to see another red GS convertible in the group. Can't have too many. Chuck is correct in the "arrest me red" color.
