    NC New Guy

     



    Just found this site, awesome!!!

    Building a 46 Ford truck ratrod at the present time for my grandsons, got 5 of them so hopefully they each will get a turn at driving it someday. One granddaughter also.

    Wonderful wife, 33 years together.

    From Reedy Creek, NC. Just outside of Lexington.

    Motto to teach my grandkids: Put God first in all things and have fun and be safe!!!

    God bless you all.

    Thanks for the welcome.

    The ride is in pieces at the present time, actually just getting started on it. Been collecting parts for over a year now. Cant tell you the miles I have walked through bone yards in search for that one hard to find part.

    Its been an adventure.

    Well try to get some build photos up soon.

    God bless

    Welcome Larry. First off, thank you for your service to our country. There are many vets and fathers of vets on this board.

    Better build that rat "Ford Tough", 'cause those 5 ol' hairy-legged boys will be competing with each other to see which one can tear it up the worst.

    How about some details and pics of the build. We love pics.

    Thanks techinspector1.

    I got a few years to work on it and make it Ford Tough..lol........ the oldest is only 9.

    I will try to get some photos up soon, not much to look at the moment unless you like pictures of parts and a crusty-rusty old cab.

    Thanks for the welcome.

    God bless

    Welcome Larry -

    As mentioned, lot of us Vets and you'll find a few born again brothers as well! I commend your outspoken boldness on your faith. You'll find most here are more that willing to "share their mind" - if we can just keep focused on hot rods!

    Great technical and practical skills on this board - not a day goes by that I don't pick up a thing or two. Get us some pictures and jump in to a good thread with us..

    Glad to have you with us.
    Glenn

    Thanks folks for the warm welcome.

    glennsexton: As Paul said in the book of Romans, chapter 1, vs.16: "For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek."

    NCHARDHAT: What part of NC you from. I;m right outside of Lexington in a small community called Reedy Creek.

    Welcome to CHR, Larry! A 46 Ford truck build would be an interesting read. Keep us up with your build and plenty of pictures.
