I am new to the board - lurked occasionally though. spend a little time on the HAMB and over on inliners.

I am into the inline stuff, had a couple AD pick ups but like to see what is happening with these trucks on occasion

Welcome to the Bolt 6inarow. You don't have to own a truck to be welcome here. There are a few Dakotians around the bolt here. I know one up in Box Elder if that is close to you.

Lots of folks here love the inlines so you should feel right a home.

Box Elder is way on the other side of the state (375 miles) but the inlaws are out there so I get there on a regular basis. Western SD is a great place.

Welcome 6inarow, I'm sure you will like it here. So do you currently have a truck? (not that it matters, just curious)

I had a 53 GMC half ton in the past - it was fun. I have a 41 GMC big truck that I would like to make into a half ton pick up - looks like only the cab will work for that, huh?

Welcome aboard South Dakotan. This is a great place to visit. I spend a lot of time reading but not a whole lot of time posting. I'm driving an old SoDak Chevy myself. Was my grandfather's truck. Just hope to get it done someday.

Enjoy the ride.

Welcome to the best Chevy truck site by a darn sight. South Dakota is rich with stovebolts. I'm a little suprised there aren't more Stovebolters around here.
