Hey there folks, my name is John, I live in Maryville (just outside Knoxville), and Ol Blue (my truck) is a 79 F-100 SWB Ranger Lariat. Im new to the chapter as well as the site, but have already gotten some usefull info fron some of the posts, and look forward to more great tips and conversations.

 

Welcome to the Tennessee chapter, from Cleveland.....

It's been a little dead around here lately, I think everyone is trying to get ready for winter..

 

Drove through Maryville going to and from Elkmont this summer. I'd love to live there! Any machinist jobs out there?

 

Yea, I hate cold weather, makes my bones hurt lol.

 

Not sure on the jobs, any job around here seems hard to find, gotta love how our economy has gotten so much better (or NOT).

 

I guess I need to stay here for now. At least I get 5 weeks of vacation. Taking a day today to go to Mountain View, AR for the Bean Fest/Outhouse Race! Nice, but its not the Smokys.

 

Welcome to the chapter!

 

Welcome also from Clarksville; being in Maryville your knocking on the door of some of the best car shows in the east. And a awesome view to boot!!!!!!!!!

 

Welcome! From the little 'ol town of Erin here...LOL I've got a buddy who lives in Maryville, I've never been but he says it's real nice there. Throw up some pictures of your truck when/if you can, we all love truck **** here.

 

Yea theres some great shows, but I work weekends so I dont get up there much, and its a bit too crowded for me. I would make a point of going if it were a Ford truck specific show though. Ill try to post a pic or two. you should try to make it to Maryville sometime, great lil town, not real exciting but great views.

 

they arent showing?, just hit my garage I have pics there.

 

Welcome to the party. I used to live in Seymour and make trips to "Murville" to visit friends and family there...

 

Welcome. I'm in Oak Ridge and work at the Airport. Went to highschool in Alcoa so I'm familiar with the area...

 

Thanks everybody, maybe we should do a local (Ford Truck) meet & eat, possibly have a swap meet & eat, just throwing it out there.

 

I'd be happy to as soon as mine is back on the road. (should be may if not earlier) Just getting the block back from the shop and waiting on various parts along with needing to get the front back together.....
