Randy - Welcome! Glad you joined.
 Do you have pics of the truck? We'd like to see them. And where's home? We have a map (Bullnose Forum/Member's Map in the menu) and can add you with a city/state or zip.

@Gary:
Thank you for the welcome. Please add me to the Member Map when you get a chance. My location is Emmett, Michigan in St Clair County up in the thumb area at zip code 48022 Thanks in advance. r About the pics, yes i do although I am not the owner yet. I'll post some tomorrow when I have more time. The truck is not in tip top shape...yet, so these images will be the "BEFORE" shots.

You are now on the map. And I see you are just barely in the US - if I got the right spot.
As for the pics, when you want to post you might want to start a thread in the main section about your truck. You could have "before" pics and then pics for when you pick it up and as you peel the onion. Oh yes, I should tell you about that. I liken these trucks to onions. Lots and lots of problems, one on top of another. We peel and cry, peel and cry. But pretty soon we have a Bloomin' Onion!

Gary is always very colorful, this image is so true!  This is why this community is so valuable and helpful, keeping us smiling while crying!

The "peel & cry" bit applies to me, for sure. Got the truck together maybe a year ago and since then the brand new radiator sprang a leak, the idler pulley froze and shredded the belt, and in writing a new "tune" to the ECU there was a glitch that "bricked" the ECU. And I'm sure I'm forgetting something. Oh yes, the left turn signal brings the dash lights on.
 But two steps forward and one backward is still progress and, as Jim/Ardwrkntrk says, "Progress is good!"
