Here's my introduction...
Hello, just wanted to introduce myself after finally getting on the site. My name is Mac and I am a Chevy addict. LMAO I am in the Army currently deployed to Afghanistan until after the 1st of the year sometime then its back to Tennessee. I finally got a hold of a 72 C10 Longbed, something I have been itching to own since my first exposure over 15 years ago.And thanks to my loving wife it made it to my garage 3 days later. I got a good deal on a starting point for my first and most meaningful build (as soon as I get home to it). Not going to let the cat out of the bag but build time is projected to be 3 years and then it will be Goodguys quality.
I have been following the forum and some builds for some time but just became a member and paid for my yearly subscription. I am very excited to discuss this lifestyle and passion with all of you and meet some of you at the upcomming shows this spring (Yes I am already looking forward to spring). The rest of the lot includes a sexy 2005 2500HD Ex Cab 6.0 with 18" moto metals wrapped in Terra Grapplers, a 2004 2WD RCSB 4.8 Silverado (hopefully gone soon) a 2001 VW Jetta (the wifes daily), an 06 ZX6, and my wife's 06 yamaha yzf-600r. I have a 96 Banshee too but after the left piston shattered and blew out the bottom end it just serves as an expensive seat now. Pics comming up soon!

Re: Here's my introduction...
You should definately go see her. Just the drive there, once you get into TN is well worth it.

Re: Here's my introduction...
I did see that and that gave me an idea (not a monster logo truck either). Planning on stashing a monster under the hood.
Loud rumbles scare women and children!
