Newby would like to say hello! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

farmaller · 11-21-2004, 08:34 PM

Hello All,
I'm new here and probably won't have much to contribute other than listing some parts in the future and some questions about a 71 C20 Custom Camper a friend of mine bought in Vegas, I found it for him searching on the web.
The most important part of my life is my family, my wife and 2 kids have dealt with some serious medical problems with me and will always come first.
I'm not much of a car or truck person(that is changing since I have access to a 67 C20 I want) but do like the older Chevy's from the 50's to the early sixties.
My main past time other than the internet is playing around on my 2 Farmalls, a H and a Cub, I'm also am a former truck driver(last job driving was hauling Over Dimensional\Over Size) so I try to keep up with the trucking world and the new trucks them selves.
Now I operate automatic screw machines making brass parts for the fishing lure industry for the company who designed and manufactors the Anchor Mate.
I hope I can contribute something to the site and help some people out along the way.
Thank You
Bob

I had to make a decision, restore my Ford Goldon Jublie, or continue with my truck plans. I traded the Jubilie in on a new tractor, I got way more than my uncle, the orininal owner paid for the jubilie when it was new. The tractor had a Sherman transmission add on, which added to the value. The new tractor is nice in that I do not have to work on it but I sure do miss the old one. I also let a 8N that another uncle was the original owner go, I am sure I will regret this aslo.
