Hey everyone, my name is Jessi or Jess, take your pick. I'm 13, I live out in Kentucky, my Dad and I have an 1986 Silverado nicknamed "The Rock" because at one point in time it totaled 3 cars and my uncle drove it home with barley a scratch. I love listening to classic rock, old country, and some of the new country. Just thought I'd say hi.

Maybe if i find one at a junkyard someplace. But the rock we got now was my Pepa's truck, its blood kin as far as I'm concerned.

Jess, its always nice to see young men come to their senses and join up with a REAL truck web site:)
Welcome to the bolt and as Red58 mentioned you need to hook up with JDL (Jordan Long). It can't be that far from Kentucky to Illinois and besides,between the two of you maybe you can keep us old folks young...at least in spirit!!

OK stovebolters, I guess JESSICA is the youngest LADY stovebolter and Jordan the youngest Gentleman!!!

Jessi, Jordan is a 13 year old young man that is working on a pickup truck. He is just like the rest of us....just stovebolters helping each other.

You can look up his project in the gallery under the 54/55 model year.
Now get your dad to look in the TRUCKs FOR SALE forum and get you a project truck to work on!

Well now, let's see here. As far as me "conning" people into getting me my truck, I just kept saying that I would have to figure out a way to get it home. Oh, and the people here also convinced my mom to let me buy my truck. Anyway, welcome. I'm sure you could find a good project down there in Kentucky. And remember, don't forget about ANY potential truck until you can't find another. I looked for and begged for 3 years to get a truck, and all that time I couldn't keep my mind off of "possum"(read my gallery submission to figure that one out) and now that I have the truck, she runs better than all of the vehicles we have except for my brother's truck. Now the brakes and rust issues are a different story. By the way, you live about 1 hour away from me, or so I've heard about the difference from Greene County Indiana to Louisville.

Welcome Jesse !
Great to see a young lass who loves not only old CHEVS,
but AC/DC as well.

I live an hour away from where Bon Scott's ashes and memorial are.Matter of fact, we just went to a Bon Scott exhibtion at the Fremantle Arts Centre a couple of weeks ago and got to see some of his personal photos and read some of his letters and postcards he sent home to his mum and friends while he was overseas touring........interesting stuff!

Wish you all the best with your STOVEBOLT adventure, you are in good hands around here!
