Hello all,

Been a few years since I’ve been on here. Originally on here at least 20 years ago, got the truck running good and then life happened and the truck sat unlicensed for a number of years. I tried to get back on here when I retired but forgot my login info and could not get anyone to return my emails to help with that so I created a new account. No worries. I am in the process of getting Old Blue back on the road full time and will be needing some help from you fine folks! Looking forward to it!

THANKS!

Edit: We found him! (Blue 50) Wow, he joined Dec 30 2004. He had over four pages of topics started. Fourteen pages of topics he participated in. Active Bolter. thumbs_up

Wow! Glad to see you are back.

That is a really good looking truck. We have the Stovebolt Collective available for any help you need.

Besides more pictures (we really like pictures!), be sure to post your tech and mech questions in The Shops Area of the forums.

Welcome back!

Working on this topic. Neat to see in some of the General Truck posts (see the list of posts) made by Blue 50 (a/k/a Bluetruck21), there are some with Cletis. (RIP)


I think we'll be wrapping this up this week and get the two profiles combined.

And then Blue 50 / Bluetruck21 can get back to business. grin

Well I am a Gemini so two profiles might work for me! Thanks for all your help! Looking forward to getting Blue back on the road as a semi-daily driver.
