New From PNW
Just sayin' Hi,
Recently acquired a 67 Chevy Panel truck. Pretty nice survivor shape but needs a little love. Would like to turn it into an old school push truck/ race car hauler for nostalgia drag racing. It's good to know this site exists for how-to questions. Good to be here.
David

Re: New From PNW
That looks like a great start! The few panels I have seen around here have been real rustbuckets. Plans for color? When I was a teen I hated the gumby green but now It has really grown on me. A set of slots would look great imo

Re: New From PNW
Cool I plan on putting a removable push bar on my panel (when its on the road). I want to push some cars down at Bonneville.

I picked a cool metal plaque from a member. Its N.W.P.C.A Portland. I found this pick online. Mine is painted black with white letters.

Very nice, the color reminds me of a forestry truck. From the pics it looks to have very little to no rust

Hey, back at you neighbor! My buddy (raised in D'town) and I drove our cars in the 4th of July parade. His mom still lives there.

Nice Coupe!! That would look great going down the highway behind the panel.

Thought I would share a picture of one I had a few years ago.

Re: New From PNW
There is already a regional section which contains a Northwest folder, granted its larger than PNW but its there. Welcome by the way.
