Anyways I build trucks and other custom stuff(farm machinery) looking to see if anyone is looking for some help with thier rebuild. anything from just getting one running to a complete rebuild and anything in between.

We really don't have a forum for this type of post so John and I decided to leave it here and see how it goes.

been following the forums for a while (4yrs) i've built more than a few trucks, have 4 stovebolts and 5 fords sitting out back. some to build and a few for parts. next stovebolt project is to take a big bolt and turn it into a BIG pickup truck for my neighbor, using as many original parts as possible. should be a fun daily driver.
if anyone needs parts or questions on building an AD truck, just ask.
thanx

Good info for someone in his area. Maybe it could fit somewhere in the "Links" category.

Let's not get so hung up on the letter of the law that we drive away a guy who wants to contribute.

Perhaps for now Daren can limit himself to jumping in on the forums and offering advice and help as the rest of us are doing, and at some point he may get his web site up and going, then we could link to it.

In the meantime, Daren, Welcome to the Bolt!!

"Contact me if you need help with your truck" could be placed in your "signature" in your profile. Be sure to also put your email address in your profile.

You could also contact people via PM or email message if you want to offer paid-for services.

not so good with a computer, can't figure out how to change my profile, i've also moved since i set it up. 500hp street truck-yup, doing things a 10yr old knows on a computer-nope. havn't figred out hte signature.

although i have stopped going to shows with my street rod(1946 plymouth 4 door sedan)b/c of the attitude of the other rodders. I don't look at brands, only USA made. truth is they use alot of the same parts, and the stuff that is truely better, why limit myself b/c of brand? to each his own,and if it works, who cares?
aren't we doing this for pleasure?

hey guys. surfing the web and found a AD 1/2 ton for sale in TX. it was done up original with nice paint and they wanted 52,000 for it. it looked nice, but i've seen diy's in the gallery that looked just as good, and probably cost ALOT less to put together.
anyways i'd have a hard time using it as a pu at that price, and i don't care for trailer queens. just my opinion.
