Intro to the vintage side
I usually hang out in some of the other areas on TRF (mostly read), but I have started to dip my toe into the vintage pond and wanted to say hello.
My first run in the vintage world is a white 1680 and I must say I am falling hard for the vintage pieces. So much to study and so many details - it's great. I wanted to test the waters, but I must say I think I am hooked. Of course, no intro is complete without a picture:
