I'm active duty USMC w/ 25yrs in stationed in PCola. Currently looking for a 47-57 truck work on with my two sons. Hoping to make some new friends here and pick your brains along the way!

Just scroll down and it's easy to find. Good to work on a project like this with your own sons. My one son is in the military, not close to home but he loves to see the progress (actually no progress) when he comes home. Good luck, hope you find a good truck.

What an awesome endeavor to share with those boys! I hope you guys find just the right truck! Keep us posted will ya? | | | | | Joined: Mar 2010 Posts: 843 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Mar 2010 Posts: 843 | Hey LDO, I'd like to suggest that you email my son Brian Waldbaum, (Brian_ [email protected]), and tell him Semper Fi. He was a Harrier mechanic at Cherry Point among other Marine Corps adventures and now lives in nearby Chickasaw AL. He's restorodding a '66 Chevy pickup and I'm sure he'd be eager to keep an eye out for the truck you're seeking. His nearly complete project is on hold while he finishes his degree in engineering. Good luck. Ray

And, there are quite a few of your Devil Dog brothers here on the 'Bolt, as well. Glad to have you aboard -- Plenty of guys to help you find the truck you're looking for.

Well, not actually much of an update. My search for a truck has stalled a little but by the end of this month, I hope to start looking and making a few trips to check some out.
