I've just joined this forum but have seen since I've joined it not many people respond to questions or making many comments. Is there a problem with people viewing this forum or people just don't have anything to say. I'm an American and live in Thailand. I just bought this GTII and need in put from people that have experience in Bradleys. I'd appreciate people answering questions if they have the time whether it be for me or someone else.
Thanks, John

Hi John, Great to have you in the club! ;D If you check the home page, it shows how many members have been on line in the past 24 hours and also how many are currently on line. As I write this, there were 19 members on line in the past 24 hrs and 3 are currently on line. Being semi retired, I usually check the board 2 or 3 times each day when I'm home. But will be taking vacation the next couple of weeks, so won't be on line much during that time. I usually wait for someone else to answer questions of a general nature. But if a question involves something I have good knowledge about, I will normally provide an answer based on my own experience. And most questions get answered within a two or three day period. As for general discussion, not much going on unless someone is posting progress reports on their own project and getting response from that. I think a lot of projects are currently on hold for various reasons which are probably related to the poor economy. Gary Hammond,

I too check the boards several times per day. Having built a GT and a GTII I have some level of experience with general questions. Details are slowing leaving my aged brain though.

Hey John - Welcome!
I'm also on the board now, pretty much daily. I am currently going through a total tear-down & rebuild of a Bradley GT II for my son - I have two cars; the other is a parts car.
Let any of us here know if we can be of service!
(And FWIW, I have a good friend from college in Bangkok)

Welcome, and glad to have you on board. I am mostly a lurker, as I know that most everybody has had MUCH more experience that I have. I bought my car road ready, and only have done a few mod's on it. New tail lights, and replaced the doors with snap on plastic. If I see a question that I KNOW the answer, I will try to help. Most of the time, I let the experts field the questions. I check the boards every day or two, now that I have found it.

welcome,
i find that my bradley restoration comes in waves. at times, i'm active with my car and with the board. right now i'm in a slump.
so it doesnt mean no one's home, but as with anything there are peaks and valleys as to traffic on this site. best of luck...

Hi JMURCH, I own a GT II too, if you need some answer, post some questions. Our wealth of knowledge is open to everyone asking for. I'm in the final stage of completing my resto, really, only few details.

hi john--as with everyone else that have answered if i know the answer i will respond. bad info you dont need. mine is a gt11 1979 and was just thebody but brand new with parts and manual. I was recovering from open heart surgery and could comprehend very much including the manual. every one tried to help but i was pretty confused. I thought i knew what i was doing and saying but didnt. better now after a year and a half i think but would bet to much on it. I was opened up 2 times in 12 hours but made it so far. steve

Hi John I am on the net every day and hit this site about 3 or 4 time during the day. Most of the time I use my PocketPC, which is very awkward to reply to any web messages. When I post I also like to try to attach a picture to the posting, but at times you can’t always do it. Six weeks ago I had a partial right knee replacement done. A week ago Saturday I went to the ER because of some nasty flue, negative on the H1N1. Got some antibiotics. The Monday following my heart started A-Fib again, tried to medicate it my self, would not convert. So Wednesday I went to the ER in Columbus and they keep me for 2 nights. By Friday morning the heart had converted back to sinus rhythm. Now the weather is turning to crap. I hate working on car in the cold! Wyn

Thanks, John
