    Hey all,

    I am just another guy with too many projects and not enough time. I am a car geek, did my first brake job 31 yrs ago at the age of 9, haven't put down the wrench since.

    Bought my first car at 15, a 1962 Impala SS that someone else had stripped for painting and never went any further with it. I still have that car, though the engine has been in the trunk since 1989, I don't want to go back to it till I can give it the full meal deal..

    I have loads of other projects around here, looking at them, far too many..

    I recently picked up a pair of 49 Chevy 1/2 ton's, one being a 5 window. I am building one for my 17yr old daughter who has been into these trucks since she was old enough to walk.

    I stumbled upon this place doing the S10 frame swap search in google, what a place this is!!

    Anyhow, thanks for all you guys who have contributed here, I have a bunch more reading to do!

    Hey there,
    I just moved from Bellingham down to the Bay Area last week.... was up there for 3 years! Great place and some real nice vintage (and modern) tin up there. Hope you did not suffer in the flooding~
    Great to have you onboard...
    BTW, do you get down to Marysville very often? Might have a project down there for you if you are interested...:cool:

    Thanks for the welcome!

    We were fortunate and did not have any issues with the flooding, aside from my root cellar getting hip high.

    I think if I take on another project the wife is gonna kick me to the curb. Given that, whatcha got? :D
