Ready to get the truck on the road?
The Side Lot has the places with some action!
From West to East, South to North ... into Canada, of course!
Some groups have posted events that cover your roaming area.
Check in for starters, and check back often. Might be missing something like this
or
some variety.

'Bolter

Hello Mike!
Welcome to the Stovebolt site!
I can relate to your story, I recieved my '46 from my Dad many years ago. I plan to pass it on to my son and grandson someday. For now I'm enjoying watching my grandson playing in Papa's truck when ever he comes over.
It's always good to see another "Bolter from Wisconsin! We have got to try to have a Wisconsin get-together sometime!

Hi Mike, what a great truck and what you will one day cherish as great and happy memories. My father also passed away from cancer when I was only 25 (I'm now 51) so I do understand. I wish that my 19 year old son shared this hobby but he is more interested in his girlfriend (that's OK) and his music (that's not). Good luck - you and your kids will make your dad proud.

Thanks Hey, when I was in my late teens I was more about the girls than anything else......then I came to my senses. There's still hope for you bud! Mike

Mike, welcome to the Stovebolt from a fellow Cheesehead. I am pushing 80 and my father has been gone 62 years but I still remember him fondly. I have a son who is also a motorhead. We spent Sunday at the Jefferson swap meet and car show. We cruise together and along with his boy, my grandson, we have a lot of fun with our old iron. Maybe we will run into you one of these Saturdays at Gus's drive in in East Troy. Good luck on your project.

Welcome Mike. Although you don't know it yet, you are among friends. Your idea about making new memories is absolutely the way to go. You and your family will enjoy the process of living with an old truck. Your Dad couldn't ask for a finer tribute. None of us could!
Very best wishes,
Les
