Hey all, my name is Larry and I recently purchased a 1962 Chevy C10. After a lot of searching on this site and others, thanks to the links, I've been able to determine the truck was built in Baltimore, close to where I used to live. My wife and I now live in South Carolina. I bought the truck to use as a driver, but as my son says about me, "my idea of acceptable isn't the same as others". I guess that sums me up pretty well, I've already done more to this than I intended.
My real project for the last five years has been a Harley Davidson roadster built on a 1967 VW pan. Hoping to get it on the road sometime this summer, but I've been saying that for three years. Anyway, I guess that about sums me up. When I'm not working on the projects, I like to fish, paint and write. I'm really looking forward to the knowledge base present here, so you'll be hearing from me.

Welcome to the Stovebolt, Larry. It sounds like your like a lot of us here on the bolt. We start working on them and then say "Well, while I'm here I may as well......." and it never ends!

We're here to help. There IS lots of knowledge and good folks here. Visit often and post questions in the best forum and we'll help you do the rest. Good luck.

Say....are you close to Spartanburg??

Larry, I go thru Greer quite often. Know several hot rodders from there. Have you made it to the Beacon for any of the cruise-in's?? I'm talking about the ones that Carolina Classic Car Club does on the 3rd Friday of each month. Its a nice one.

...also, Carolina Classics big annual show is the 25th of this month at Sears Westgate. It'll be a big one. I'm a member and usually at each event. Let me know if you come and we can meet up and chat.....or met over your way one evening.

That would be really cool. I know I have to pickup my wife and daughter from the airport the morning of the 25th, but I'd like to come after that. I should have the truck drivable but again pretty sure it's not a show truck. My wife says we've been to the Beacon before to get a fried turkey for Thanksgiving so maybe I can make that. Would be nice to meet you. My truck is supposed to be a driver, my big project is a Harley powered roadster that I've been working on for five years. Here is my build thread...
