Another New Guy

[JVictor75]

Hi everybody,

I have also been following the threads on this board for about a month and a half now, just like Randy.

My name is James Locke, and I've just completed five years of service with the Marine Corps as a communications technician. Right now, I'm looking for a job for the summer and then will be off to college in the fall. I am now staying with my Parents in N. Central Texas, in a little town called Mineral Wells.

I've always loved 67-72 Chevys. My Mom and Dad's first vehicle they bought together was a 68 LWB CST with 11" reverse steel wheels and 72" lakers. I loved that truck and it's been mine for the last ten or so years. Problem is that I tore it completely apart right before I left for Boot camp, thinking that I would have enough time to rebuild it on my vacation time. Then Mom and Dad moved and threw all the bolts and parts into numerous boxes before stuffing them in different storage buildings.
I am also the owner of a 71 Cheyenne 10 that has a 350/350 combo with maybe 5K miles. I bought it for $1000 and had to put about another 2K in it to make it driveable and safe, but oh well.

Look forward to reading your posts, I'll probably be dropping by fairly regularly to chat and ask questions.
