New Guy From Oklahoma

I joined awhile back, but just getting around to posting. I'm Randy from Okla. I've got an 85 that was a long bed when I got it. Over the last couple of years I've tried to make a decent daily driver out of it. Currently I'm doing the body work trying to get the thing straight enough for paint. This looks like a good place to hang out. Hope you like my truck. Thanks, Randy

Re: New Guy From Oklahoma

That is a good looking truck. Welcome. I can see the thought and effort you have put into the truck. Once it is painted, expect to receive lots of attention.

Re: New Guy From Oklahoma

Thanks for the welcome. Neat to see the Okla crowd, if any of you guys need Fireworks this year come see me. I have a place on 145th E Ave. between Pine and Admiral. Come by and introduce yourself. We'll have to get the Okla trucks together sometime. Thanks again

I would love to go to a Tulsa get together. Surely there has got to me enough guys around town with trucks!

I was trying real hard to get my truck ready for that show tomorrow,(even though it's far from a show truck) but I didn't make it. It's been so hot it really slowed me down. I may still try to come out for awhile. Mike and Dwayne that help put that show on are good friends of mine. It is a good show. I take it you're going? With the black truck in your avatar?
I can't believe all the folks here from Okla! Thanks for the great welcome! Glad I found this site!

Re: New Guy From Oklahoma

I will be there but not with that truck it is down to the frame right now. I will be there with my 83 shortwide custom painted by dough boys. That show has really grown and its only a few blocks from the house.
