I am glad to be here. My kids say that this is Dads happy place. Weellllll -Ok here at the forum and in the garage

Its killer to be able to wrench on your own stuff. Just a click away for all the info you need.

Right on Alan....Well said !!

I've been away for a while, but thought about this forum everyday. Wife was like, "we need to get the net in the new house quick"

It is an awesome, and very informative site. I myself always try to contribute with as much info and pics as I can....as do all.

I say to all...keep it all coming !!

I sold my 66 and got a 68 burb. I must admit I like our 60-66 side of the site better. Berry busy and fast pace over there. Guys on this side are a lot nicer, a lot of attitude over there! Lol

There`s no other place I`d rather be than here.

Alan's Classic · 04-28-2010, 12:15 AM

There's a lot of heart felt thoughts here.

A thought came to me just now................Could y'all imagine all of us living in the same neighborhood.

Nothing would get done, it would be all talk.

Scottshotrods · 04-28-2010, 12:30 AM

For sure love this site great people and the 60-66 are my favorite body styles period.

I acquired my first '60-'66 Chevy/GMC truck 30 years ago. At that time, if I had $5.00 to my name, half of it went into the tank and the other half was my walk-around money for the evening. I still have a few bi-fold, black & white, 6-8 page flyers with the complete offering of aftermarket parts for the '60-'66 Chevy/GMC trucks. My, how times have changed...and I am very thankful and grateful for the increased interest and following for this era of trucks!

I have participated, in some fashion, with every other website, specific to the '60-'66 Chevy/GMC trucks on the internet and without question, in my humble opinion, this is the "hands-down" leader when it comes to this era. Hardly a days goes by, that I don't learn another nugget of information about these trucks.

I have recently made a career change at the ripe old age of 45...and I am currently doing all things related to '60-'66 Chevy/GMC trucks as my full-time vocation. With the many great contributors on this site, coupled with the new members, lurkers and occassional posters, I find this to be a tremendous source of information and entertainment.

In a rough economic environment for many people, it is very empowering and comforting to have a nice reprieve from the fast-paced world, and be able to come to a place like this! This site has become a part of our daily routines and one that we will all look back on as a positive experience that binds our love for these trucks.

Many thanks to the staff, moderators, members, contributors, vendors and visitors of this site! Have a blessed day.

Good stuff, Tony.

Shaky · 04-28-2010, 02:55 PM

My brothers and my friends all owned 67-72 trucks. I bought a '66 because it was in good shape. Soon after I began to regret it because parts and manuals weren't common.

Well, now I have a '66 and '67 and I like them both. This part of the website has a different "feel" than the 67-72 section and I like it. This place inspires me to keep chugging on my rebuild.

Rusteeze64GB · 04-28-2010, 04:01 PM

The site is awesome, it opens the doors to meeting people that can help or even hang out with locally. This site is perfect for fo it yourselfers, and recomend everyone I know that has 60-66 trucks to this site.... Thank you

Cool forum w/cool people w/cool trucks and if you need help you get cool answers. I can't think of a better way to spend time each evening finding out who did what to there trucks and how they did it along with pic's. I belong to other forums and they all have there place but the 60-66 section is "THE" best IMO so to all you great guys and maybe some gals thanks for making it what it is a cool place....Vernski

jchav62 · 05-03-2010, 10:45 AM

You know, before if you didn't log in for a few days, you'd come back and there would be maybe a page, a page and a half of new posts/threads. Nowadays, there are two or three pages...
