Hey guys,
I just got my account activated. I have been reading this site for a while and think it's one of the best forums on the internet. I grew up in missouri, but I'm in Ottawa, KS now. I just got back in the truck game with a 67 Short/Skinny project. I want to recreate a truck my dad and I had when I was 15. I loved that truck and he sold it because I got in some real trouble. You guys have already been a great source of information searching the forum for info. If you're from around here, drop me a note. thanks, JohnBoy |

Re: Kansas New Member
Thanks for the welcome! I have pics of my project. I want to post regular and show my progress. I think I can have this thing rolling before too long. I want to make a driver/project out of it. It seems like my favorite vehicles are ones I work on and drive at the same time.
