Was doing some research on the web and this site kept popping up for info on my old "stovebolts", so I thought I would join up.  I have been a "pickup man" since I was a kid. My first truck was a 53 GMC when I was 15. Now I am almost 45 and still cant get enough of them. My daily driver is a 79 K10 long box, 65k original miles. Current projects that I cant seem to work on include a 41 Chev and a 69 GMC, working on aquiring a 63 GMC stepside as well. I work at the local bodyshop here in Lusk,WY and last winter we finished up a complete resto on a sweet 72 Suburban. I am sure I will have plenty of questions for everyone, and hope I can toss my two cents in when it can be of use. First question, do I just link to my photobucket account for inserting images? Thanks, Sam
In such a khonstant state of khaos I dont know what project to work on first.

Sounds like your a "dyed in the wool" truck guy...like so many of here on the Bolt. This is a great site. Good folks and lots of knowledge. I feel sure you will have much to contribute to the forums and any questions you may have just fire away. We're here to help.
See ya around the garage.
oh, yes, just post a link to your photobucket and we can see what your doing. We love pictures around here. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2007 Posts: 4,185 Moderator | | Moderator Joined: Mar 2007 Posts: 4,185 | Welcome Sam, you`ll fit right in.

I just got through putting together a photobucket album that is site friendly. Here is the link... http://s40.photobucket.com/albums/e229/sampamandfam/My%20pickups/The blue 79 is my driver, the 41 I am still looking for a few parts but have a pretty good idea on direction, the green 69 GMC I just bought and dont even have it home yet, needs an engine and radiator. The 62-3 GMC stepside is one I hope to get soon. The blue 72 Suburban we restored last winter at the shop I work at, and the 57 is a friends that I painted 5 years ago for him and helped him put it together. Maybe one day one of mine will look that nice.  ...just uploaded pics of another friends 52 Chev Panel, I did just about everything but the paint on that one.

Thanks for sharing the pictures. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2011 Posts: 14 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Nov 2011 Posts: 14 | Some very nice rides. I can't wait to post some photos of my project. I'm not very computer savvy, so it might take some time.

It must be easier spending other peoples money.
