Not so new... sort of... from WA State

Post by PhotoBugz »

Hey Everyone ~

This is my first post, but I've been lurking in the shadows for years... usually not even logging in to browse. I must say, of the auto-related forums that I'm a member of, this is easily the most organized and useful... at least for non-experts like me :D

So why haven't I posted before? Well, I don't have a truck... but it is on my wish list. So much so, that I've been collecting parts in anticipation of my one-day fixer-upper. So why don't I have a truck yet? Well, too many other old cars, I suppose. Maybe I just need a bigger garage :thup:

So one day soon, maybe, I'll be getting that fixer-upper. Meanwhile, I'm collecting parts (and selling a few as I find nicer stuff).

That'd be a decent candidate. We have a metric buttload of bumps over here in Spokane.
too many Fords, no where near 'nuff time.

You'd best get over and look at that one, PhotoBugz!

Thanks to everyone for the warm welcome :D

Nice truck in Spokane...but I'm not quite ready yet, no matter how good of a deal.

I've updated my signature + I'll probably add a photo album later. Everything is restored to decent driver or better except for the Mustang, which still needs minor bodywork and paint.
