I've been reading posts here for a while and everyone seems to be very freindly, so I figured I'd join in. I have loved old trucks ever since I was a kid, and have owned a bunch and worked on many more over the years. Working with trucks is pretty much all I have ever done, as a mechanic for 25 years and as a fleet manager for the last 5 years.
The 60-66 trucks are my favorites, but I like all old trucks, not just Chevy and GMC but all old trucks. I especially like all the pictures of the unmolested trucks you have here. I'm an oldie that still likes them the way they came, except for maybe a set of chrome reverse or slotted aluminum wheels. I have nothing against all the new fads if that's what someone likes, but it's just not for me.
Thanks to all of you for letting me be here, and I look forward to talking with everyone.

Tabdoo16, no offense meant to those that like customs. I'm sure there's plenty of people that don't like them plain the way I do. Each to his own. It would be a dull world if everyone liked the same thing.
And Achipmunk, I've actually grown kind'a customed to the hangovers, but I think I'll like it anyway. lol
Thanks Again!

| | | | | Joined: Feb 2006 Posts: 346 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Feb 2006 Posts: 346 | Welcome to the bolt TruckNut! I'm one that has a (molested)truck. My '51 started as a father/son project. They chopped it three inches and the son lost interest so I was able to pick it up for $700.00. I just couldn't let it go to scrap yard. I agree Orignal is better but I just had to save this one. Any way welcome to the site we're glad to have you!
