New cruiser guy & family

[QsLC75]

Helloo buckeye cruisers! I just moved here from NC where I was and still am a member of Old North State Cruisers. I had a lot of fun learning about cruisers from ONSC events. Spent my college years dreaming of owning an 80 but ran 2 Cherokees into the ground. Switched to 4 runner in grad school and never looked back. 7 years later had the opportunity to own and rebuild a 93 75 series Troopy. I sold it in january after 4 years to a fellow ONSC member. Life happens and we moved up here.
I just purchased a 03 hundy From Texas in preparation for Chardon winter. Texan cruiser and well cared for but bone stock. Driving it now daily planning the upcoming mods for it. I have a couple of questions ( reputable mechanic, parts- Wtb used 16 or 18" 100 series rims, membership/events, etc) which I will post later in this thread or new one.

Cheers,
Quinton

Welcome to our corner of mud.
I think my brother still has a set of 4 16" 100 series wheels in Columbus. They need refinishing. He only used them while he had the 18s powdercoated.

Did someone say Chardon Winters?

WOW another cruiser fan up in my direct area Chardon, OH.
I work in Chardon. It looks like winter has started today in our area.
Shoot me PM since you in my direct area. I am down to only two cruisers a 100 and a 40.
Not many around these parts but I do know of a few.
I use two different places for repairs when I do not want to do it myself and they are both in Chardon.

I am in Chagrin falls and have two 100s and an 80, all are of the Lexus variety. Would love to know if reputable places nearby that do work on these cars. I hate the Lexus Dealer, and I recently bought my 80, and don't want to take it to Lexus.
