Welcome! Did 6 years in the Air Force myself, and born and raised in Bonham, Tx! Have fun with it! Can’t wait to see her.

When you upload your photos it gives you 2 options. The very top one loads all your photos at once in either thumbnail or full-size. The rest you pick individually and it lets you decide if you want thumbnail or full-size.

Liking all the old Chevy's and GMC's in the back ground too!

I sorta had the disease for about 15 years, don't know what I'm going to do with all of them. They keep telling me I can't take them with me. Personally, I think either destination would benefit with a couple of truck projects.

I just looked at the first page of your build. Wow!!! I'm impressed with your dedication to perfection. I guessed N. CA, but how far North? State of Jefferson? Foothills NE of SAC?

Retired AF? When, where & what?

Thanks for the warm welcome. Bonham is in a pretty area.

What did you do in the AF, and where?

140 miles north of Sac. NE of Redding. We talked about the Utah Lawn darts already. I entered in 77 and retired in 95 promptly took my skills to the USPS as a electronics Tech. Retired from the USPS Jan 1st.. I was a originally a Autopilot/instrument tech on F-4D's at Hill AFB Utah then on of the first flight control guys in the 16th fighter squadron and then all over the world from there last duty station was Mt. Home Idaho with the 389th fighter.

My dad bought the truck in 73, had fun days in it during high school, he gave it to me when I retired. Me and my son are restoring it to be a daily driver. As you will see it has a 2004 LM7 in it now. Still seems like a thousand things need to be done.

I'm sure when the time comes you'll part with a few of them. I had a 54 mustache Chevy in high school would love to have one again but not sure I'm up for another build.
