Mike

Really enjoyed meeting you and Shannon today. Don't be a stranger on the forum, and get those PICs up. Start a build thread with a couple PICs and you will find out how helpful the guys and gals on this forum are. None better on the internet.

I'll be checking on your project this summer when Joliet Dragstrip is open. I'll bring Carol and she can assure Shannon that there really is a light at the end of the tunnel. Yes, I just invited myself.

I truly appreciate your advice, and the great parts I recieved....I don't know who enjoyed the ride in your truck more, me or her! You are more then welcome to come by any time you want! Thank You again-Mike

@48Atoy- yessir, I go there every year!I actually bought my truck last year on the day of the show. Would be interested in seeing your truck sometime-Mike

Stupid Question guys. How do you put your information ie; vehicles owned, favorite quote.... under the line in every post? Gotta be something I'm not seeing. Been on a while, but new to actually posting. Thanks

Maybe I have to post more before I can do this...."edit signature" is nowhere to be found under user cp......I have quadruple checked? edit avatar is plain as day, but definitely not anything about signature?

Edit: under Edit avatar it says, edit email and passwords: edit gallary.....can't find anything to do with signature.

No biggie, just thought it was kinda neat.....I won't lose any sleep over it...

You're right. FAQ section states 5 posts and 10 days from register, then within 24 hours it should work.

Thanks, I figured my lack of posting may have something to do with it....I was going cross-eyed looking for it though! I guess I should scroll through FAQ section before asking next time.....

Welcome Mike,this is the place to be for all the info you need. the people are friendly,willing to share and push you along on every part of your build. Good luck on yours and always make it fun,if you get frustrated with step back for a few days and jump right back in. Take it one piece at a time and you'll be Rollin before you know it. Ask Fatfenders if he goes to the good guys show in Des Moines. if he does I have probably seen his truck and not even known It. Just noticed he was from Iowa. Take care and "Keep on Truckin! Pictures of mine in my gallery,haven't mastered the art of posting myself.

<p>That's right, one piece at a time, and sometimes only 10 or 20 minutes per session, but you'll be pleased with your progress. These guys are the greatest help!</p> Welcome from Calif!
