New Columbus area member? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Longhorn Man · 03-14-2003, 05:56 PM

With any luck, we'll have a local member here soon.
I was at a parts store chain getting the U-joints and carrier bearing for the longhorn today and the maniger I was speaking to was noticing my turd (GMC) and mentioned he has a 67 chevy pick up. He's bout to buy a place here and then he'll be having the 67 (and an old Impalla) shipped here.
Seems like most the truck owners here are stuck in the dark ages and have no internet, I have spoken to about a dozen ppl locally and none seem to be connected. (very sad)
Well, if you log on here...welcome to the club!

I am a new member and should have my 70 GMC Burb here next week, actually bought it from a board member swede413 in Las Vegas and had it shipped. I live in Fairborn so I am only about 45 min from Columbus.

Sweet...importing nice trucks into the rust belt.
I've thought about doing that for fun and profit....mostly profit, but never got the show on the road. That was actually the whole reason I bought the firs Longhorn, I was gonna buy a trailor and haul nice lookin junk from Tx to Ohio and had a buddy willin to sell them for me.
Oh well...one can dream.
In case I have't said it before...welcome to the board there Mark.

Mark540, nice to see so many Ohio menbers. I'm up here in the Toledo area, and just wanted to say hi, and welcome to the best board ever. Seriously we need a Ohio menbers meeting this summer.

Longhorn Man · 03-16-2003, 01:46 AM

If I had the space, i'd do it in a heart beat.
I have a cousin who owns land up in the Lima area, but the house is a total dump so she killed that idea. (I asked her last summer)
