Recently retired. I've been hot rodding cars since the mid 70's. Pontiac man my whole life. Got it from my Dad. Made a living wrenching for 5 years. Built VW's in Pa for 10 years. Been Drag Racing since the late 70's. Always a crew member, never drove. Go figure. I certainly do not know it all, but I have a pretty good understanding of cars.

The important stuff.

We just picked up a 2002 2500 5.9L Sport. Has the half door, not sure of the proper term, cab. 97k original miles. Has the leather interior, pretty optioned out. More on later if needed.

We're about to go see The USA, or at least that's the plan. Just had the rear end gone thru. Found bad pinion bearing, repaired. Had new Spicer U Joints installed also. Truck back in shop for new front ball joints, steering linkage. Should be done later today.

I'm gonna look around and see if I can answer any questions that I already have. If not, I'll be asking.

Thanks Guys. been on a lot of forums, this place reminds me of a couple of nicer boards I've visited.

Ya know your wonder how you'll be received. A bit relieved here I might add.

Off to find out about those heat shield tubes around the plugs. gonna do a tune up this Labor Day weekend.
