I know it's easy to spend all your time in the Forums. After all, it's a great group of folks from all over the world sharing a hobby they love. But if you're not regularly cruising through the rest of the site, you're missing a great deal.
Everybody should drop by the Gallery regularly. We're adding trucks there every day, and you can get some great ideas just from seeing what other folks have done with their trucks.
The Stovebolt Newsletter always has interesting information as well and is updated monthly (sort of - we get around to this stuff as we can.)
The Links pages can help you locate needed items for your project. The Stovebolt Locater page can help you connect with bolters from your area.
The reason I'm the Stovebolt Geek is because, a long, long time ago, I wrote a post in the Lounge (may it rest in peace) entitled "Gawd I love Stovebolt!". John read it and asked if I wanted to volunteer to help, and the rest is history.
I don't want, nor do I need, money for what I do here (in fact I donated money until they made me stop), but without my help, this site could cost John and Peg hundreds of dollars every month for professional services.
The value of all our volunteers is far beyond the estimated cost, because volunteers care more about what they're doing than professionals who are paid to maintain things. So volunteer to help if you can (donating money is one way to do that), but
always remember, you are welcome here if you never do anything but read and enjoy the site.
A huge thank you goes to our sponsor, American Classic Truck Parts (click on the flashing link above), without whom this site wouldn't even exist. American Classic bought our first server, pays our monthly hosting fees and paid for all the expenses related to the hard drive crash last year. One way you can help us is by checking out their site and buying parts from them, if you need them.
The biggest thank you of all goes to all the bolters, whose participation in this site makes it what it is - the greatest site on the web for antique GM and Chevy trucks.
