Hello all,
I just joined the forum. I've been browsing around the website for some time, but now that I have myself an old truck, I figured it's time to officially join.
I picked up a nice 1949 GMC 1 Ton, which is running and in very decent shape.
The pics can be found here: Greg's '49 GMC 250 1 Ton
I want to thank all the members and site admins for providing such a wealth of knowledge. This site really helped me decide if I should buy the truck or not. I was wondering if it would be impossible to find parts/info for that truck, but after hunting around here I realized that would not be a problem!
It currently has a farm rack body that is rotting away. I have started pulling it apart to make way for some nice POR-15 and new wood.
Also, I'm an IT engineer in my day job, so I'd be happy to help out with the site or IT issues.
Thanks,
Greg

Welcome to the Bolt! Looks like you got a really nice truck! It doesn't hardly need anything!

These guys can tell you anything you need to know.

As far as your IT skills, maybe check in over at the IT Short Bus Forum.

Welcome Greg, good to have you aboard. I love that truck too. Do you have any specific plans for it?

I'll bet the man who sold you THAT truck wishes he had it back!

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.
I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you smile

I love those trumpet horns! They are perfect for that good looking truck.
