hey guys, just bought my first classic, 1949 gmc 3/4 ton pick up, found the site cruising around online and later met repoman at a local bar. fill my head with all your "useless" knowledge.......
23 yr old mechanical engineering major from NJ, been working on cars and trucks since I was about 15, lots of experience with jeeps, build a race car for our college everyyear to compete against about 140 other schools in detroit in may, 17th in 2005, 15th in 2006, and one day had a long talk with my grandmother about old cars and my grandfather and inspired me to get a classic, about 4 months ago purchased the 1949 3/4 ton GMC truck, haven't been able to work on it much, cause trying to make up some cash to pay off school and have funds to actually drop into the truck, but been doing lots of planning, I'll post a few pics of her later speaking of smart, how the hell do I erase a post, I forgot I already posted here at like three in the morning after work, haha and can't figure out how to erase my other post
update on the truck, engine won't turn now, opened up the spark plugs, and carb, sprayed about a whole can of PB Blaster into the cylinders, a few days ago, am going to try to spin it again today, if no go, then I'm gonna pull valve cover
