Hello from the Great Lakes State.
« on: October 01, 2015, 12:51:57 PM »
I just wanted to say hello to everyone.  I am on various truck forums (Diesels, expedition, Cummins, etc.)  but i think this fits my intended goals more then the rest.  Our dodge has been in the family since new and spent most of its life as a hard working farm truck in salty Michigan.  This past life has driven the repair & upgrade schedule. This has culminated this year with a complete cab failure do to rust.  So right now my mission is storing 2 years of firewood up so the truck can come in for a serious overhaul.  Which will entail complete front clip, bed, and cab removal.  I am so jealous of some of the build threads going forward here! Thanks, for a great site.

Good ole salt rot, I don't envy your situation.

welcome sir. 

if there is something that you are in need of assistance with, please feel free to get a hold of one of the three main DOT's (kensauto, jr and texasredneck) as they will probably lead your project into the wrong direction.........;D

Dearly beloved, as we gather here today, it dawned upon me that there is a erstwhile need for camaraderie and fellowship to benefit the benevolence of our small group of real men.  Therefore and ergo, we come to the junction in the road where we must make a stand for.......uhhh, what??

Oh, hey! Welcome Kiszka.  Howdy from the soon to secede Republic of Texas.

Don't mind Nate,  He's been smoking too much meat.....

If Texas does secede, just don't build a wall from us citizens, south is fine.

Hello Michigander

My dad lives up that a way.   

Like Don asked.  Are you under or over the bridge?
