Hey there, finally got past the roadblock and able to post!

Had ZERO access until I paid for an account today? Not a great start but there seems to be much good info here so I wanted in.
I recently picked up a ratty old 66 Chevy Panel, been wanting one of these forever...my Toyota Tacoma 4x4 was stolen end of Feb and I needed a truck (you know how that goes) so started looking for a replacement pickup, looking at C10s, square bodies, etc...and then ran across this 66 Panel 10 miles from my work. She starts right up, drives well and stops (mostly), so I’m pretty happy with that as a starting point! Has a 230 straight 6 coupled to a 350 Turbo Hydromatic and a funky B&M Slapstick shifter (wouldn’t have been my choice, but it works for now.) She’s a pretty cold blooded but runs strong once warmed up. It’s a Flintsone mobile, I have a good view of the road...but I’m ok with welding in more steel where needed.
I was referred here by my pal Farmer Rob...don’t hold that against me.
