New guy from BAMA
 

Just wanted to say hello from Montgomery, Alabama.
I'm new to this forum but not new to building "Beefed up" street trucks.
Current truck is 81 GMC Stepside with a pretty strong little 350/350 combo. Mainly wanted to be cordial and say hello. Great site here.

Anybody else from BAMA on this site.(I hate not knowing people)

Re: New guy from BAMA
 

Not from Alabama, but Welcome to the site anyway... :lol:
Glad to have you, and let me be the first to say...We Like Pictures :)

Re: New guy from BAMA
 

Thanks Redneckgirl.

I just knew I should have pics ready to post as soon as I said hello. Be fair warned, mine is no show truck, but just an old beater. (The show-n-shine thing just isn't my style thats all)

Re: New guy from BAMA
 

Just wanted to say thanks again for the warm welcome. Although My truck will never be at the level of some I see on this site, I like to get out and beat on it more often than not. Mine won't be a show stopper, especially with flat black paint. It just isn't my style.

Some of the rides I see here are truely incredible.
Hats off to all "Ladies and Gentlemen"

Re: New guy from BAMA
 

Well thats his forum handle, not sure of his real name but HERE is his build thread. One of our mutual friends took me over to see it one day. All I can say is if you see that truck in your rearview ya better show some respect!;)

GL and have fun with your truck!

Re: New guy from BAMA
 

Smooth ride.....

MUCH respect showin from here.....

Re: New guy from BAMA
 

Welcome from a Bama gal!! We're just north of you in Chilton County. Post pics as we are a visual crowd here! ;)

Re: New guy from BAMA
 

Hey looseScrews,
Good to know someone is close. I am somewhat apprehensive about posting pics. There are soooo many beautiful trucks around here. Even when it is finished, mine will still be un-refined, and will never see a coat of gloss paint. If you are still interested, be glad to post em' for ya.

Re: New guy from BAMA
 

Heck! Don't be shy! Look what son is working with:

Looks like this as of last night:

That is son removing the windshield....he's 13 and it's "his sexy truck"...yea, RIGHT !!!
http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s...7/CIMG0715.jpg

And here is a quick shot of his OTHER '67 project:
http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s...7/CIMG0718.jpg
It's a 1967 Boston Whaler 13' Classic Sport. It's going to the liner today and we'll get it back next week. Rub rail will be added and new 30 hp motor. Ready for the reds! :lol:

Son is lucky to have so many '67's around!! (I'm a '67, too)! :hm:

I believe Shane is from Monkey-town as well as onetonK5. Both are SUPER nice guys who have put up with my ramblings. You'll see 'em post from time to time. And give us a holler! We'll meet at Fantails when the projects get done! :gi:

Re: New guy from BAMA
 

Good deal,
I thought the fantail had closed. man that is some good eatin'. Every time I have been there to eat, I had to be carried out in a wheel barrow.

I will have to see about posting pics in the next few days. Don't look like the weather is going to cooperate with me this weekend. Soon as I get mine done it will be "Tire Roastin' Time Again"

Re: New guy from BAMA
 

It may have closed! Haven't been there in a few years! But when we did go, we wouldn't eat lunch! :lol: We'd be MISERABLE when we headed home!

If it's closed, how about Igor's in Monkey-town? They have the BEST crab claws of anyone around! We'd go on Sunday afternoon when they had their appetizers 1/2 off. Husband and I would get two each and the son (10 at the time) would get the 1/2 dozen oyster appetizer (he'd get a full dozen). I said I wouldn't know what to do with him when he turned 16 as much as he likes raw oysters. :barf:

Re: New guy from BAMA
 

Welcome....there are a few Montg. folks here. Mike Nutt...Ojoe..me...djracer is in wetumpka.

Re: New guy from BAMA
 

Loosescrews & OnetonK5:
Thanks for letting me know of others in the area. Hope to paint mine (flat black pimer) next week some time.
Like I said in an earlier post, it won't be a show truck, It is a go truck!!!!!!

Will post pics later of what it was when I got it home and what it looks like after paint.

Re: New guy from BAMA
