Hello from southern Missouri - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**oldman3** · 03-31-2011, 05:12 PM

Hello fellow truck lovers. Name is Jim, I'm 65 years old have been into cars all my life, have owned several tri 5's, camaro, Monte Carlos, and had a 32 Chevy sedan for over 20 years (street rod). I currently have a 1950 Chevy AD truck, I removed the top and made it, into a roadster (my avatar). I do all my own work from start to finish. Have helped several friends with their street rods and trucks. I have been to this site several times looking at many post. Decided it was time to become a member. I will try and post up a bunch of pictures of my ride, when I learn the system. I'm also on the HAMB site under oldman 2, I try to learn something new every day and I'm sure I will learn more here. If I can give any good info I will, but most of the time I will listen and learn. Have a great day.

Welcome to the board. You have done something I want to do next winter to my 53. Could you post some more pictures of your truck? Can I ask you a lot of ?'s on how you did it? Thanks Ray

70cst, thanks for the kind words. There are people on here that make me look like a hack (HA HA). I just try and do the best I can.

Have several friends down your way in W.P. and Koshkonong. Heck even Porter Wagoner is from W.P., but I guess you get sick of hearing that. I'm a transplant from Poplar Bluff myself, Welcome to the forum!

tcb-1, thanks for the reply, now a days most people don't know who Porter was or how much he did for country music.
