In2deep - you have a two or three car garage with one truck in it. Whole or in pieces.
Popcorn - you get up at 4 a.m. to work on "the truck" because it's more important than sleep.
Fahr - you excitedly call your wife to tell her you found the perfect (insert missing or broken truck part) ... and she's as excited as you are about it.
Tony M - your wife checks the history feature on your computer and finds nothing but pictures of naked ... trucks.
Fatfenders - your eyes glaze over when someone talks about any truck newer than 1974.
46 Burb - you spend quality time with your wife on the living room couch with a laptop posting on a Stovebolt forum.
Patrick66 - you have parts from the last 17 trucks you've owned, and can identify every one of them!
Sublime- you heat bake your intake manifold in the kitchen oven and stink your house out for hours.
Mugsy- the first thing you do in the morning (besides make a cup of coffee) is turn the computer on and go to The Stovebolt Page.

It looks like all the cabinet space is taken up with small village figurines. LOL
I think that Dan knows better than to touch those.

Absolutely No Touching - LOL!!! Even though I did pay for them. She has her things and I have mine. Speaking of, I think I need to invest in a bigger cart. It's now full and overflow is stacked on the table. Plus I need a place to setup and run my newly acquired old 1930's - 60's Chevrolet film strips I got from Jon H "carbking" to convert to digital files so they can be shared with fellow Bolters.

Iām looking forward to seeing those film strips!
