Dropping in from cali to say hi - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

limpin75chevy · 11-05-2007, 01:38 AM

Thanks for letting me be part of this site. I currently own 4 chevys and a buying a brand new one in a few months. Starting from oldest i have a 55 chevy belair, a 75 custom deluxe 3/4 ton p/u, a 77 k-5 blazer and a totalled out tahoe. I served 10+ yrs in the armed forces to come home with 3 bullet holes, two stab wounds and a piece of a humvee in my leg.

So now at a young age of 30 I sit and fiddle with my 55 and now my 75. I like to learn alot of the mechanics of how things work and am learning alot about these old trucks. love mine to death. Well thanks and I wil stop blabbering. ( oh and I like to talk, take walks on the beach and lol jk)

I'm in the SF bay area, Vallejo to be exact. I should have a small group of cars (about 4 or so) coming up in april. I would be awesome to meet up and I would like to see your truck. Sounds wicked.

Yes we sould, Not sure if this nasty beast will be ready but im trying, If money were no object it would be, like everyone else's. But we shall see. But definatly the 55 will be in the show, it was last year and hot august nites. Feels real good to show off something you worked real hard on.

Thanks for the greeting everyone
