obligatory newbie post

Howdy boys,

I'm not much into "hot rods", "rat rods", or any of the things that have
come to be described by the overuse and misuse of such phrases in the
last number of years just the same as "bobber" and "chopper" have been.
Frankly, I'm pretty stupid when it comes to things with four wheels.

Still..., I've always known what I've liked, and
recently decided to find out what it was called.

For whatever reason, I'm decidely
drawn to mid to late 30's Dodge trucks.
They're simply gorgeous to me.

... and having just recently tripped across one, I've decided to learn more.
This place looked like it might help in that regard, so here I am.

As for "about" me, I have my own shop that kinda crept up on
me and started interfering with my real job, so a few years back
I decided to leave outside emploement and try doing my own thing.

I'm a Tool & Die guy by trade, but I'm
commonly known as a Machinist and a Welder.

Best,

Weyland

 

Howdy Weyland, good luck on your hunt, I'll keep my eyes peeled.

Thanks, Nads. Good to see you here.

Maybe we'll break out the secret stash of patches and letcha have
one or two for those work shirts if ya stick around long enough...

Best,

Weyland
