Thumbs up Re: hello from wisconsin!

Hi all!~ Thanks for the warm welcome! As you can see my old girl is sitting out in the snow. I dont drive it to much in the winter(what a shame!) cause of all the road salt they use here! I have a 1941 chev car that is waiting for its turn in the sun again, as soon as I get pics I will post. Ive had my 59 NAPCO for more than 20 yrs.. The original six has been bored and Ive also added full flow oiling to slightly upgrade my six. My chevy is one old survivor! Oh yeah I bought it in Wyoming so it is not too rusty at all! I worked in the oil patch when I was younger.

Re: hello from wisconsin!

The definition of human is "has old Chevy and loves it dearly" all the rest are just imposters.

Let me know when you and the old girl get down to Oz... I do the best road trips and would love to take you both out and show you the sights.
I had an old dodge truck once that looked a little like yours - a little like a donut looks a little like a cake.
