Another new NC guy - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Grandpas69 · 08-29-2019, 11:53 AM

Hey, I joined here to hopefully get some insight and utilize the vast amount of information here. I just bought my grandfathers truck back after my family sold it about 20 years ago or so, and I’m planning to restore it. I’m excited about the project but it is going to Ben a long process for sure. With a 2 month old there isn’t a whole bunch of time for working on project trucks.

On a different note, I’m not sure if any others have experienced this or not, but I joined the forum back in early July or so I think, and today is the first day I have been able to post. I know the account has to be approved but that seemed a bit excessive. I even sent several emails through the contact us tab and got no replies. Just kept checking back to see and finally I guess I got approved. Is this normal?

Anyway, I’m excited to finally be able to post, and look for my project thread here soon.
