I see your in N.C. and I know a few other bolters from N.C. as well. I'm in Spartanburg so depending on what part of N.C. your in maybe we need to meet up for a hot dog and cold Pepsi..... or some good BBQ! | | | | | Joined: Jun 2015 Posts: 8 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Jun 2015 Posts: 8 | Thank you. I am in Goldsboro NC I actually am getting the truck from SC. I was stationed there for many years and a friend called me about the truck. The BBQ idea sounds great. Take Care.

Looks to be a nice daily driver. Quite a few bolters in N.C. surely we can get someone to nominate a place to meet up and chat a little....The weather is great and getting better Coda, keep us posted on your truck and remember, we're here to help. Just ask questions in the most appropriate forum and we'll do the rest. Keep on trucking. ...and I noticed you have a young bolter sitting in the seat with you.

Glad that the pictures worked out I was wondering if I did it correctly. I love this sight as just about anything that I wonder about is always just a search away. I am real glad that the weather is getting better everyday it makes it nicer to tinker with the truck. As for the little bolter he likes the truck a lot which is good cause it will be his one day. I just plan to enjoy for a little while before then. Hope all is going well. Take Care.
