Hello and hope you all are doing well!
 I'm a noobie to your site and will take some time to look around and get a feel for how things are done here. I have learned over the years that it's best to observe the traffic flow before pulling in.I have a '67 C20 Camper Special with power steering, brakes, factory air, 327 Turbo 400 and 456 gears in the rear. She is real straight with minimum rust, kinda ugly but I plan on correcting that over time. I am married with 3 cool kids, work as an engineer for an aerospace company and wish I had more money to spend on my truck. Politics and religion are two subjects I refuse to argue about as I find those are too close to the heart of most and I am sure as hell not going to change their minds. This forum appears to be populated with some real talent and I hope to learn lots of good things. Years ago, I worked as a body/paint guy so I would be happy to help out with questions about "old school" techniques. After that, I trained as a machinist and worked in that field for 20+ years. During which time I got my mech. engineering degree and here I am making airplane parts. CrashBob |

Re: Hello and hope you all are doing well!
when you hit the "reply" button, scroll down to "manage attachments". Hit that button and it opens a window where you can "browse" your computer for pics.
from sunny southern california. We live for pics around here!!

Re: Hello and hope you all are doing well!
Thanks to all for the welcome. I am real glad to hear compliments on my truck instead of "when are you gonna get rid of that piece of junk?" It's nice to be in good company that appreciates a diamond in the rough.
I need to spend some time looking around the site so I'll jabber with ya later! Crash
