Re: Hello to all

just use the Go Advanced link below and scroll down. Hit the manage attachments and upload from there. If you photos are too big then you will have to make them smaller. You should have a program called Paint on your computer.

Re: Hello to all

I don't really go to the GG shows anymore. Cost to much to get in and then the vendors are expensive. The Turlock Swap meet is a much better place to go for stuff.

Re: Hello to all

Welcome. I'm just a few exits up highway 4 from you in Antioch.

If this rain keeps up they won't be able to have cars on the grass at the Goodguy's show. It might scare off some of the swap meet sellers too. I'm not sure if I'm going yet, but I'm looking for some stuff at the swap meet.

Sounds like a good photo op.

I sold a 59 to a guy in Pittsburg about ten years ago (just a guess). That truck wouldn't happen to be a shortbed, stepside, big window would it.

He has had it for about ten years but it is a small window.

Thank you.

The 66 is going to be my sons truck once he can drive, but until then it going be a slow rat rod project.

The 64 is just kinda sitting. My dad drives it once a month but that's about it. We just finished putting a 350 in it and have a th350 sitting waiting for install.
